I did not see this anywhere. You cannot upload an image for an avatar or signature.

FYI…You can go around it if you hyperlink the image of another site.

Is this something that will be fixed?

Does the image fall within the restrictions of the site? If so then I have some work to do behind the curtain.

What are the restrictions? I just thought that image uploading as a whole was busted.

Huh. I can’t see your Avatar but can see your Sig. Maybe my work PC permission rights…? But, I can see a few of them. IDK.

I got redirected to this 69.175 business. I stayed there.

I remember the board redirected me to “69.175.blbhauwdbuiabd” a short while ago. Are we not on that for the “new” site…?

This is confusing. But I like it.

I think that I have this all worked out. Please anyone that has had issues test out uploading any images to attachments, signatures, avatars etc… and post up if you are now successful.

I know you don’t understand how the internet works but that domain name points AT THE SAME FUCKING IP ADDRESS YOU LISTED

Name: [nyspeed.com](http://nyspeed.com)  
Address: 69.175.22.26  
Aliases: [www.nyspeed.com](http://www.nyspeed.com)

They used just the IP during the transition because they couldn’t update the DNS.

You don’t fail as much as our registrar who couldn’t get our dns set up for almost 2 weeks :fail:
