uploading profile picture

Hello,

I have been trying to upload my profile picture to Salsa Forums. My picture is less then 150X150 and is also smaller then 64 kb but when I try to upload, I get the error message "unable to save image". Has anyone else experienced this as well?
 
I too am unable to upload my profile picture.

A second issue I have is that some of my replies to posts do not seem to be appearing. Some posts appear near instantaneously while others have not appeared 24 hours after posting. Perhaps the message board is slow in updating or undergoing some upgrades at the moment?

I don't mean to complain. I think this is an excellent message board. I am just curious about some matters as I am not a computer expert.

This happens because some of your posts trying some of our mechanism to protect the forum against spam. In such cases the delay happens because one of us moderators needs to manually approve your post before it appears. So no need to to worry about this.
 
Has this problem been fixed yet or is this still an ongoing problem? I notice a lot of people here do have profile pictures but I am unable to upload my profile picture. I got the error message "upload failed".
 
I got the error message "upload failed" when uploading my profile picture but much to my surprise, my picture shows up when posting :)
 
Speaking of profile pictures, I managed to upload mine without getting any error messages but my profile picture is not showing up next to my posts. Is there a time delay between uploading and the picture showing up?
 
I have the same problem as you Miranda. When I tried to upload my profile picture several months ago, I got "upload error". Now when I upload my profile picture, it shows up on my personal profile but it does not show up next to my posts either.

Change your profile pic and it would work perfect.

I uploaded 105 X 150 my profile picture, it did not show up. I deleted and re-uploaded my profile picture and it still does not show up. Cute profile picture by the way Lolita!

Can any of the forum's technical staff help?

Thank You:oops:
Well, I am sure someone will get on it when they check the posts, but you can always PM one of them?

I think I will private message them. Thanks.
I saw all the cute avatars and couldn't resist wanting to add my own photo to the collection just so people know who I am :)
 
Hey everyone, I'm really sorry that this continues to be a problem, and have just let our tech team know that this still needs to be handled.Please understand that as a purely volunteer run site, we often have to wait a bit longer than we'd like for our tech team, but (a) that we do know of the problem, and (b) have just sent a reminder to tech that this still needs to be resolved.
 
Thank you PielCanela and SDsalsaguy for volunteering your time to help make this the world's BEST place for salsa lovers around the world to gather and chat!!!

I know the profile picture is a nice thing to have so others can see our picture and perhaps recognize us if another member is on the same dance floor as we are. They might think "hey, I was just chatting with her yesterday at salsa forums".

I real problem on the forums would be if the spam filter blocked out any posts that had keywords like dance, crossbody, spin, salsa, music, holds and rhythm. (joking)
