Uploading Avatars

help...

I have tried to upload an image for my Avatar picture, but the upload page for such never seems to work - the Upload button does nothing, and the page seems to be continually loading. Anybody know how this process works? Anybody encounter the same thing?

Dddzt. I *just* read the Flash 10 notice that has been occupying the blue bar on these forum pages for decades...

The weird thing is that my first post doesnt contain my avartar, yet in the rest of them it does.

I see it here. Hopefully this will be resolved soon - I notice that a fair number of people are without one, and these days I suspect most of us prefer one. This is probably the only negative concerning these boards I can think of: otherwise the thread/forum software they use is excellent. Makes the FSM (Film Score Monthly) forums look as archaic as they actually are.

If you were to Edit that original post, I wonder if it would update with your image?

I finally succeeded in uploading avatar (from ie that didn't have lastest flash player installed), but each post I made before don't show my avatar. The posts I do now work just fine.

If you use FF as your main browser and don’t use IE at all it should have Flash9 installed just UL the avatar with it then go back to FF. If you use IE then download FF and do the same thing - simple solution.
