If I'm reading that right, you're trying to make it download a php file? Or is it just not loading up the avatar change page? Cause it works for me.

Thank you for your patience. i am serious about being inept. example: been reading fark for months--only found out last week those little colored boxes at top were TABS which lead to other places. I am actually quite good at research--its the technical how tos i am clue less on . deep sigh. my friends call me almost amish for a REASON.

Resized to 150:

I bet you could use the url for the old one directly, just watch out that the board's anti-linkback security is gonna wrap the url.

http://img53.imageshack.us/img53/1916/87325523iu3.jpg

Copy paste that, and make sure there's no kaytastrophe stuff in it. In fact, looking at what the board does to the link I see that's what you were trying initially.

So cool. Cut and past the url that you see above, and delete everything prior to the http://img.... part. That will get rid of the redirector.

He used it before TH's NTL was shutdown. During all the NTL:SO and NTL reboot time, he was avatarless.
