This may sound Obvious, did you click "apply" after uploading your image

just changed mine, uploading and clicking ok was enough to get the job done. I'm out of ideas.

It might be a size limitation (how large is it in kilobytes?). If all else fails, e-mail it to me at
erikr@matrixgames.com and when I have a moment I'll see if I can get it working for you.

it wouldn't be my first choice, but as you can see, I've just uploaded Oliver's avatar succesfully. Must be some silly little detail.
edit: all I did was click on 'upload my picture' (the link after 'my avatar'). Then I uploaded it and clicked 'ok' at the end of 'my profile' and I was done.

have you tried clicking 'ok' instead of 'Apply' like Oliver did in the end?
Could you attach your proposed avatar to a message, so people can see if something's wrong with it?

Well this is what I get, if I click on ok or apply
if I try to put my brithday in
if I try to add a message
if I try to add a avatar
if I try to change the timestamp
?????
(I thought it may of been the browser auto fill, turned that off, but it still shows the same)

the thing I would try at this stage is blanking the email-address and unchecking allow others to send me mail, just to see if it makes a difference...
