Everytime I try to upload an avatar I keep getting this message

Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.

The error returned was:
The upload failed. Please contact a member of staff to help rectify the problem


It has nothing to with the avatar's size because I made sure it was sized down to under 250KB. Around a couple weeks ago Crazy created a thread mentioning that the board was transferred over to a new server and that there may be bugs. Could this be one of them?

Looks like you found our April Fool's joke.




No, in all seriousness it looks like a glitch caused by the server change. Others were having problem uploading pictures as well. Try deleting cookies and refreshing on the page to update the info on your PC and try it again, I'll let the powers that be know about the glitch, but don't hold your breath waiting for someone to come fix this.

I've been at this for a week, and I've tried everything. I've even logged in using different browsers (Netscape, Firefox) and it does the exact same thing.

I have notified James, our new owner, and he's looking into it. Like I said it looks like some kind of glitched that happened with the server transfer. I tried after reading your first post and it didn't work for me either.

I know, a problem fixed on the same day someone asks about it, that's unheard of, hopefully we won't make a habit of it.
