Changing your Avatar

I've had this problem for a few days now. Every time I try to change my avatar I get the FAKKU maintenance message before it finishes uploading. I've tried multiple images of various file types but nothing seems to work. Is anyone else having this issue?

Just tried changing my avi and that message did come up but was fine and worked when I refreshed. But it seems the maintenance message is coming up often for me when I'm browsing the site. It's probably maintenance.

I tried refreshing after I got the maintenance message and it worked. But since when were .gif avatars no longer supported?

they still work, they just are picky with the resolution of 160 x 260...

So it won't automatically resize the image after you select the portion to be cropped?

you have to resize it manually...

Well that worked just fine. Thanks for your help!
