go to profile tab> forum profile and pick the box to upload avatar then enter the avatar address you need for your new one.

Constructive criticism?? Don't get it. If it's still criticism, how is it constructive?

This is what I get.




With the birthday etc info underneath.

I am using Firefox 7.0.1. Same with Firefox 6.0.2. Maybe it's a browser issue? What are you using?

What 180 gets is what I'm getting through Chrome, Opera and my mobile phone... If you want, i can remove your current pic and see whether that makes a difference?

I think unless you have a club avatar (part of the pure DFC thingy) u dont get the option.

You use to get the option to change and adapt but since an update i think about a year ago or last season people who arnt part of the pure DFC cant change it at all. i assume it was a mistake or something?

Shouldn't be the case? I've certainly not put anything like that in place.

I only have SMF 1.1.15 forum software (not 2.0.1 that is running on here), but this still works, ie adding a regular user, I still get the ability to specify a URL for an avatar.
If I change the permissions & un-tick:

Select an avatar from the server    
Upload an avatar to the server    
Choose a remotely stored avatar

Then all I get for my regular user is Personal Text etc.

Perhaps a permissions problem on this board. I can only think that Elite Club members are in a different group to regular users & the regular users need the permission setting. I may be totally wrong, but that's my 2 pence worth & I'll shut up now.

Have a look at the settings now - I'm guessing there has been some sort of change when upgrading the forum, and it's unticked boxes. Hopefully, this is sorted now.
