Trouble Uploading Profile and Cover Pics

[Anonymous75]

Hello,

When I click on the buttons to upload my pics, absolutely nothing happens  Also, nothing happens when I drag and drop my pics. Is there some setting on my browser I need to change?? Please help.

Thank you,

Karen

Loading a profile pic is done differently.  Let me see if I can find the post on it.   I have not figured out how to do a cover pic.  Gravatar is the way to upload a profile pic.

The upload option doesn't seem to be properly functioning.  I use Google Chrome, so I cannot speak for the efficacy of other browsers, but I have the same issue.  As @Hawkgirl said, you can upload an avatar to Gravatar or you can upload to Imgur and then use a link to it rather than the upload button.  The latter method is what I used.

I was trying to do the same thing this evening.  I have a nice cover picture I wanted to use but I too, am having trouble doing the drag and drop.

Will do some research to see if maybe Gravatar is successful.

....and it was not successful, I have no idea how to do this.

I have a picture that I would very much like to use as my 'cover' picture.  Is there someone I can send it to that can somehow upload it for me?

@Capulet Sometimes Board Mods are able to help, if these other ways don't work. Pictures have been an issue ever since the last upgrade to the site. Leave a message at the helpdesk, and one of the Board Mods should reply within 24 hours.
