    Re: How do I add an "Avatar"?

    Dear IndusLady,

    I am not able to add custom avatar to my profile. It gives me message "This is not a valid image file" even though the file size is 12 KB. Please help me out.

    Thanks,
    OakTree

    Hi Oaktree,

    We see that you just became a Junior IL'ite (exceeded 50 posts only today). It takes overnight for the new status to become effective and get all additional privileges. Hence the custom avatar privilege should be working for you in a day or two. Retry it then.

    Also, make sure you are trying to upload only an image file (.jpg or .gif).

    Hi Alpa,

    You can choose any image file (.jpg or .gif) to upload it as a custom avatar. It can be a picture already available in your computer or you can download from any website (there are no specific websites as such). Then you can use that picture as an avatar here.
