SFRPG

The software seems to like .PNG format files

Would it be possible to get my avatar switched from the one on the Avenger boards to the one on the CotI boards? I like the Tukera symbol a whole lot more than the rather ... androgynous avatar here. Thank you!

My many thanks?

Watch as they are given to you!

I tried to load an avatar, and it thinks every graphic file I try is "an attack vector".
(my apologies to Ken Burnside)

Any suggestions?

Does it not like .png format? The last software update seems to have got a bit paranoid about file formats...

You can either put the image up at a URL and link to it that way, or email it to me and I'll do that for you on the SFRPG server. Email addy is in my profile

I know it seems like a small thing, but uploading an avatar on this site is really quite buggered.

When I tried to upload it as a .jpg, it stated that it was expecting a .gif.

Fine, fire up GIMP, convert "avatar.jpg" to "avatar.gif", and now it refuses because it is a "possible attack vector"...

Really?

I mean, really?

I was finally able to "link off-site" the image (again, it only seemed to like a .gif format), but I really think there is something going on with your install or something.

Yes, there's something weird on going with uploading avatars. I have no idea what it is though, all the settings look fine and I couldn't find any other solutions beyond having to upload it remotely. If we find a solution we'll implement it but til then I'm afraid everyone's going to have to upload them remotely.

I don't know why everyone is having all these problems, my avatar is just the same .jpg file I use everywhere else. Ah, the mysteries of IT ...
