What is all this drivel - why can't I upload an AVTAR

Arghhh!

[mid_gen]

I'll look into it..

[Seahorse]

At least the sevice is quick - 5 minutes...

[eclipse]

I'd just link externally, that's what I've done, it works fine I think.

[Seahorse]

I would if:

A. I could ever get my website sorted (I am about 1 pay packet away from buy another domain/get a new host).

B. The Telecom Italia 50MB I have would bleedin well work.

C. If I could be arsed to sort out a Geociteies et al type host.

Until A, B or C is resolved, I'm buggered...

i have 10meg with ntl, but i have to uyse this 'user freindly ftp uploader'

i never used an ftp before, and ive given up with one:< my m8 loves them tho, stores loads of stuff there when he re-installs.

[eclipse]

well if you've given up with FTPing you've given up pretty much all hope of uploading anything to your webspace.

[biggles]

i never really wanted to make a website anyway, ill leave that to the professionals:>

always wanted to be able to draw/play an instrument, my pencil is blunt and my guitar have 5strings.

one day, perhaps, one day.

[eclipse]

don't let your dreams slip by, look into guitar playing lessons, or take some sorta art class, maybe your school runs an art club thing? DO SOMETHING!

mid, you just need to change the permissions on that directory to 777 or something, that will sort it.

Tried it =/

[Chief]

just dissable uploading then, or search the support forums on the phpbb webbie.

[biggles]

well i wont be selling my guitar (my uncle offered me 15quid, lol) i suppose i might as well but a new of strings to stab myself with until they are finally on,
ill pop down the music store as soon as i have my new bike/gfx card/minidisc player k:>

nah ill prolly grab a set next time im near a musik shop.

[Kulgan]

Hmmm. Given our recent security worries, might be best to just disable Avatar uploading regardless. /me envisions situation when some gimp uploads .cgi and fucks our hosting ><

[Chief]

i have a feeling there are safeguards in place to prevent that
and anyway, this is running on a nice and secure freebsd box.. nothing to worry about

[Kulgan]

Good point ^_^
I've updated the permissions on the appropriate directory so it'll work. Everyone, upload to your heart's content ^_^

Biggles if you want guitar tips on learning and stuff i know a good way, What i am doing is starting by learning really easy tracks from guitar tabs (you can get them any place and they are free) then working my way up slowly building up skills as i go.

[eclipse]

what's the advantage of uploading avatars to linking?

[LazyManc]

You dont need your own webspace.

Guitars are great, just wish that everytime I got to the hard bit of a tab file I didnt start on a new one

[Seahorse]
