Why is my pic not loading?

[reniTrith]

I am trying to use this pic as an avatar but it would not load? Is it me or is this feature turned off?
<a href=googlehlp.com/photo.jpg/>Me in Mexico 2007</a>

Hi, welcome!!!
I did't see your picture but you have be sure that the maximum size of your custom image is 150 by 150 pixels or 43.9 KB.

HOpe that helps!

you can not use HTML when posting (the <a href... etc) if you want to post an image you need to use BBcode (

-- no space) For your avatar you'll need JUST the link.. not any coding.. so EX www.photo.jpg

HTH!

I've tried every link and code they give you at photobucket and none of them work. I've found it's easiest to just get it to the size allowable here, saved at 72dpi, and upload it straight from your computer.
