I’m not a computer guy, but I think it has something to do with the link you use. Mines stayed for years, and I’m glad for it.

I`ve had mine for years too then poof it`s gone.

Tried to add a few different ones but no luck.

Oh well.

Probably has to do with the image hosting service.

[wes]

Probably so.

This is easy...

• Upload the jpg/gif that you want for your Avatar into the "Random Picture" thread...
• use that address  for your avatar

Your avatar will last as long as the "Random Picture" thread.

[wes]

I`ll give that a try thanks sync.

Some imagehosting-services do not work on Getbig anymore.

[Hulkotron]

Also one of the more popular free image hosting services (tinypic) recently went tits-up.

Save the image on your computer and upload it for your avatar.

Upload it for your avatar?

Where is that function, i only see "I have my own pic and Specify your own avatar by URL. (ex: http://www.mypage.com/mypic.gif)"

Tried that several times.....the image showed up and a few seconds later disappeared again.
