When I try to upload a picture for my profile I get this message
The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved
What am I doing wrong????
I see others have pictures
The forum doesn't allow for photos to be stored on the site. You must post it elsewhere online (like the photobucket site for forum members), and use the "I have my own pic:" option with hyperlink. This saves space on the server. -Justin
okay, where might I find the photobucket.
thanks
