Hello and Welcome! I've been a member of this community for a week now and there is nothing but great information and wonderful people here. As for the uploading of photos, I had some trouble myself initially, but low and behold, with a little info from the members and trial and error, I got it figured out. Hope I can explain it to you well enough with confusing you or myself, but here goes...for a profile pic, the pic cannot exceed 64 pixels both in length and wide. Also, it needs to be either in .jpg or .gif format. In order to ensure your pic fits the criteria, go into your photo editor and pull up the pic. Go to resize, and resize the largest side (width or length) to 64 pixels. Your photo editor should maintain the ratio aspects on its own or you may need to turn this option on depending on your software. After you've done this, save the photo as either a ".jpg" or ".gif" file type. To do this, go to "File", then click "save as", when the save box appears, click the "save as type" and scroll until you find ".jpg" or ".gif" file type. Click the one you want and then "save" the pic in the location you want. Now, go to BoxerWorld, sign in, and go to your "user cp" located at the top of the page. Go to edit options, turn on your avatars and post the pic you just edited into your profile. Sounds complicated but it really isn't once you get going. Now, in order to post to the galleries, the pic mustn't exceed 400 pixels both in width and length, and must be a ".jpg" or ".gif" file type. Edit the pics same as above for profile only difference being the when you resize the pic the largest pixel either in length or width must be 400 pixels or less. Everything else is the same, and then should be allowed to post in the galleries. Hope this hasn't confused you but has helped you and works for you, it worked for me! Again, Welcome to you and Kobe!
