hey
i have recently set up a new forum http://www.bath.ac.uk/~su7jitsu/forum/index.php
i'm having trouble uploading avatars. i have set the permission of the avatar folder and cache folder to 777, using a sftp client. However when i try uplaoding a avatar it says "You did not select a file for upload."
I cant think how to fix this
any help would be appreciated.
thanks
A browser issue maybe?
Oh, and don't enter URLs 
i have tried on both IE and firefox no luck. any reason why not allowed url's?
Because you're uploading from your computer
smarty's can you please explain what you mean. I have tried to upload from my computer via the forum, but it says no file has been selected.
Can I have a URL to the forum?
i have sent you a link to the forum since elbekko said i'm not meant to post urls. If you need me to make you an admin to help just tell me. thanks for trying to help
=/ I didn't say in here, I just said you shouldn't use an url in the upload box (people tend to do that)
oh sorry, stupid me
Yeah, set me as admin so I can check a couple things (my nick is test)
done
Your host has disabled file uploads via PHP
but i know another forum hosted on uni space has avatars - http://www.bath.ac.uk/~su4jugle/forum/
phpBB uses links, not uploaded files 
The image gallery mod might be good for you tho.

There is a remote avatar mod, although I'm not sure if it works or not.
thanks alot, using the pre installed avatar gallery , I can upload the avatars into the directory manually, so they can be selected by the user, slight bit more hassle, but gets round the problem
thanks for all your help guys
i want user ULR for avatars. Please help me!

Well, you can try the remote avatars mod I mentioned above. If that doesn't work, you might try emailing the author to see if he'll consider making/releasing the new version he promised.
no. i do'nt upload Avatars. i want user ULR of avatars.
Look at my answer above. If you want to have users specify a URL for avatars, then give that remote avatars mod a try.
