Hi Lyon,

I had disabled it as a security measure (we've been the lucky recipients of hacking before). However, I just re-activated linking to an avatar hosted somewhere else. Give it a shot and let me know how it works for you.

I put my Avatar in photobucket, but I cannot make the code work. I tried the IMG one and the HTML one. Ken

Hi Napay,

What you need is the actual plain url for the image file. It should be something like http://www.photobucket.com/etc... What you don't want is anything that's encoded in either html or BBCode tags. PM me if you're still having problems with the url.

Hi Napay,
It's good to see that you go the avatar feature working. The ThisIsMS guidelines state that avatar images must be within 80 x 80 pixels in dimension. However, I think that keeping them within 125 x 125 pixels is a good compromise. It would be great if you could resize your current photo so that it's within 125 x 125 pixels.

Thanks, NHE
