I was wondering why you said "free". Well...just checked the host webpage...believe it or not it was not free when I signed up for this account a few months ago. So I just learned that I pay for something that 1) does not perfectly work, 2) others can get for free now....-_-'...you make my day lol...bah, this host is "usually" quite serious , i have another website w/ them (on a different serv.) that runs perfectly, so i'll get in touch w/ the support see what's wrong on the uploads if i'm not too lazy.

Yep, and i get the exact same problem on the upload part -_+ ...so I guess that confirms the hosting problem. I can use a "remote" system for avatars though. I have read different discussions here about that, and I think that "if you can" implement it then you should go for it, just leave the choice to the end-user . Even if you think it is awkward because of eventual display problems (link broken) or bandwidth "stolen", etc.

Ok, I will uninstall everything and try again, and if that is related to the host...well, i'll try another board. Too bad, if anybody's at globat.com too please let me know.

Topic: Avatar size problem - limits not taken into account, ver. 1.2.5 (7 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
Hello, and thanks for providing us with this opensource soft.
My punBB version: 1.2.5 , and I'm hosted at globat so I do not own the server.
The forum is right here: www.ergomada.com/forums
The problem:
I get a sizing error as soon as I try to upload an avatar. I CHMODED the receiving directory to 777. I set the avatar size to 100 x 100 and 50kb , and I still keep having:
The file you tried to upload is wider and/or higher than the maximum allowed 100x100 pixels.
which is not true. I tryied with less than 60x60 pictures, different formats (jpg or gif) and I keep having this mistake.
Also, I tryied to upload one animated gif and here i got a different error:
The selected file was only partially uploaded. Please try again.
but the gif concerned is less than 50kb.
So it seems that the limits set-up on the size in the admin panel is messed up, but no idea why. Finally, I got disconnected while I was uploading the punBB files on my FTP, before the installation. But I re-uploaded "everything" -after- i got the forum installed and discovered that error. Could that be some corrupted file linked to the db ? Should I re-install everything (files, database setup etc) or do you have any other idea why I got this uploading problem ?
Thanks for your time.
