I feel a bit sheepish about this, but here goes. I tried over and over to change my avatar untill I wasn't able to use my password to gain access to my profile/options. I resized a jpeg to 9.5 kb and uploaded it, copied and pasted it to my personal pic, ( avatar ) HTTP:// is already in the box you would paste into. I easily removed the old avatar. I don't know what I could be doing wrong and would love some advice.

There are specific forum guidelines on how big of file size and pixel size  your avatar should be. Must be uploaded to our server.

All here:

1 of 2 possible things,  the space in the file name (never use spaces  Wink ) or when you copied the link, you forgot to erase the 'http:// ' that is already there, in effect having it there twice. Wink

All fixed now. Smiley

Thank you very much! It had to be the space in the file name, now I know, things should go better for me.
