    If you're referring to uploading a profile pic i've been having te sane issue. Whenever I hit the "save changes" button I get "Upload of file failed.". I've tied using both a .png and a .jpg and they were both under the 150pixel and 34.2KB size limits. I'm uploading straight from my computer, not a URL, and it puts it there in my profile where i can see it, but it fails uploading and then doesn't display.

    Is this what you are also experiencing?

    Sounds like it's the size if you can see it when you attach it but it fails when you submit it. Make sure it's the correct size, right click the file and check the size in the properties. Mine is 150x100 I set it in Photoshop before uploading. Let me know if you want me to check it?

    To use your own picture you MUST compress it to a smaller size.
    The maximum size of your custom image is 150 by 150 pixels or 34.2 KB (whichever is smaller).

    Try a .jpg format. And make sure the pic is under 30kb.
