    Your file doesn't have an extensions. It should be named "avatar.jpg" or "avatar.gif" (depending on the image file type).

    Cool, thanks for that tid-bit of info. Now i get this error: Some problems were encountered An error occurred while attempting to copy the source image "/srv/www/htdocs/forum/uploads/AccountPictures/8832c7ce99ba35b819eabe8442075903.jpg". Your version of php (4.3.4) may not have jpeg support. A small pic appears but it is not automagically centered and cropped to 32 pixels wide by 32 pixels high. Any ideas?

    It could be that your PHP installation doesn't support GD. The GD module should be enabled because it's used to resize and crop the images.

    I know for a fact that i have GD installed and enabled because i have to have GD to use the Gallery2 package. Weird.....

    Hello, I just started using Vanilla, and I have a question about the Account Pictures extension.... <i>Jazzman: "Also, the files which will get uploaded should have writing permissions."</i> I've got it all set up -- the uploads/AccountPictures/ directory has write permissions and everything. But when I upload a picture, the image file that is created in that directory (e.g. "b95b70936633ebd6793693f09856ab0d.jpg") gets only "owner read/write" permissions (600)! When I manually chmod the image file to 777, it works great. But how can I fix it so that whenever someone uploads a picture, the resulting file in uploads/AccountPictures/ gets the proper permissions? Is it a server issue, or Vanilla issue? Thanks for any help you can offer....

    I added.... chmod($FilePath, 0777); ....after lines 84 and 94, and that did the trick.

    is there a way for each user to delete their own upload? or is it necessary to give them the login data for my ftp
    to do that manually? :D

    thanks for any help here.

    They can't remove the file, but they can remove their picture from the "Personal Information" section on the Account page. Just remove the link to the icon or picture :)

    When I upload this extension to my extensions folder it breaks the forum (no error messages, just a blank page). Any ideas whats up? Known conflicts? I noticed the extension was updated on 4th Dec, could it be a recent change? I'm running the latest version of Vanilla with the default theme.

    yes i have the same problem, it all goes black. i have 1.1 with a custom theme, it must be due to the recent change!
