I have been trying to change the picture on my Lit bio page, not the avatar, but the picture that should show right between your bio's specs and the description section. I had an image there for months before I tried changing it. I went to edit my profile, clicked browse, found the image on my system, then clicked on the save profile button at the bottom of the page. It just WILL NOT appear, and the old one is now gone, so there is NO picture there now. Doesn't seem to matter what image I use, I've tried different sizes, pixels, whatever... no jpg will show up. Now, when an avatar is changed, it displays a little message that says 'waiting for moderation', am I waiting for moderation every time I change the main picture as well? Oh... and I've also tried all the usual stuff, like deleting cookies, old data, rebooting, etc. etc. etc.

Thanks for any insight.

Are we talking about the same 'animal', not the forum picture, but the regular literotica profile main picture? I haven't seen any help that specifies size in bytes or size in width X height. But I've tried images as small as 3k and 75x75 (the avatar size) with no luck.

Sorry, we're not talking about the same thing. I sent a message to the "contact us" for the forum anyway just to see if I get anything back. Tried the contact form on the regular story site a week ago and haven't heard. I got the "we need to make sure this is not a machine" e-mail and responded, but still waiting. Then again, it is the holidays I suppose. Its just very frustrating as I can't even get the old picture to come back, its just blank now. There has to be something I'm just not seeing or a browser setting... something. Thanks anyway.
 
The profile pic on the main/story side of the site has to be approved before it's posted. I'd imagine that's so no one posts kiddie porn or uses it to advertise. Those profiles are viewed less frequently than the ones here, and most people on the forums are pretty good about reporting rule violations, so it makes sense for that profile pic to require approval.

So, choose a reasonably-sized pic and submit it for approval, if you wish, and wait patiently. They'll get around to approving it eventually.

Oh, and the "Contact Us" links are not the way to go if you really need to resolve an issue.
 
Thanks SweetErika for letting me know that has to be approved as well as the avatar, what I'm doing is I have a new scanner and re-scanned the picture thats been up on my profile page since I joined Lit back in may 2013. My avatar is just a 75x75 version of it. The new higher res avatar was approved, but the new higher res profile pic still hasn't shown up. As I said, they are the same image, different sizes and exactly the same thing thats always been there, so why it still isn't showing seems strange. I've sent private messages to Laurel for a problem I had with a story I'd written and got a response that way, so I have sent another msg and will see if I can get a response. Do you have any suggestions for resolving site issues like this? Thanks again!
