Here's the fastest way I know to update an avatar.

Select "My Profile" from the profile navbar


Hover mouse over upper left corner and a 'change' button will fade up from gray to black. Click it.


Select the file and "open."


In my browser the image is replaced immediately. Click 'Done' to save.


If I view the profile, it's still there.


It's also possible to go into your profile via "My Settings" and then choose "Change Picture."

I'll give that a try Bradl cause I'm having the same problem. I just havent been able to add a photo to my profile or add photos to my posts.

I have tried this so many times and I keep getting "photo failed to set" or something like that. Help!

Just got it to work. I had to save it really small.

how do you save the photo small enough so that it will be accepted for the avatar? i have tried everything i know and nothing works.

Here is a website I have used numerous times in the past to reduce pics to avatar sizes - hope it helps (I save it to my desktop-then delete once done)
