Since TinyPic and Photobucket are gone IMGBB.COM seems to work well.

https://imgbb.com/

When you copy the link for bulletin boards, delete the s in https and then post it in your link here.  DM me if you need help.

I can't get my profile picture to upload. Every time I try it logs me out.

1.  Select  Specify Avatar by URL
2. Paste your file
3.  Click change profile

Hint, You must reduce the size of your photo for your avatar first.  Then save it in your file before you upload it in imgbb.com

I can't see your profile.  Did you delete the s in https?  Needs to just be http in the file that you are copying and pasting.

Then again, this may be a problem for Porter.  I know he's doing things in the background.

Not sure what I'm doing. I was just trying to upload my profile picture.

Deleted the "s" and it either says successful and no avatar is attached to my profile, or it kicks out that white error page. Tried directly uploading it like Bedge mentioned and that results in the error. Neither way is working.

Hopefully Porter can look at it tomorrow. 


Do you remember what size you reduced the picture to?

I just rolled into my second place and I'll get on this first thing in the morning (or mid morning depending how work goes). 

We will get this figured out!  Thanks Steve for finding a solution.  So frustrating with Photobucket gone and have to find something that is easy!

Ok this is a server error.  Seeing it first hand myself.  Not sure how ole West Augusta was able to get his to work, but I'm trying to find the proper fix here.  I'm reading the support forums and hoping to have the issue resolved sometime today. 

Ugh bugs bugs bugs... I wanted to upgrade, but some things are pooping up that I thought might!

Ok should have it now.  It's working on my end at least.  Please let me know if you are still having issues!  Sorry but working all the bugs out of her right now :)
