Hi,

Don't know if this is the right forum for this kind of stuff. If it isn't sorry

I can't seem to get my avatar to work.

I have tried everything. It is an appropriate size.

I was told on my site I use: Gary Grigsby's "War in the East" - that Matrix was having problems - off and on - with this.

Could someone tell me - step by step - how to upload a picture from my computer and have it appear on the left - under my name - like everyone else. I have tried just about everything.

Is Matrix still having problems?

It would help if you could describe *exactly* what you do and what error you're getting at what point.

Greetz,

I've made a new thumbnail ( a great Dr Strangelove pic ), Dimensions 130x98 and a size of 2.88KB, well within the specified max limits and this is what I get:-

I'm baffled

Unfortunately it might take a while to resolve, but they are looking at it.

I must say I'm always impressed with the level of support Matrix provides, whether it it ingame problems, or tech issues. The Games Developers are always helpful and courteous, and that goes for the Technical Support guys too.

Three cheers for Matrix!!!!!
