Having trouble uploading an avatar. Help?

[Dansen]

I'm having trouble uploading my avatar, I'm not sure if I'm using the right format not. I use a mac so I took the image form a website, uploaded it to iphoto and cropped the image. So when ever I select the image and press upload avatar, the loading bar in the url goes half way and just stops. If I refresh the page reloads telling me the url couldn't be found, even though I am uploading the image through my computer. Does anybody know whats going on, or has some suggestions?

Are you sure the avatar is the correct size in terms of bytes? I think there's a cap...

Here is the image, I'm trying to have just the fish man in the middle.

While I don't know why the image isn't loading for you I just cropped out the fish man myself and it should work now.

If you save it and upload it and it still doesn't work just copy and paste this link: http://i1133.photobucket.com/albums/m584/staika/fishman.jpg

Thanks for the help, your image worked.
Could you tell me what you did?

I'm also wondering how to enlarge it, because the picture doesn't make use of the whole space.

I just cropped out the fish man in GIMP and then I saved it as a JPG image. I then uploaded it to photobucket so I could share the image. If I had to take a guess than I would think your problem originated from using a image format that the escapist didn't know. I'm not completely sure about my guess though
