In last time I often read that some users have problems with their avatar upload on their site.
So this is a general check list, what you can do to solve the problem:
Check your folder:
The following folder must have CHMOD 777: files/images/avatars/
Check the requirements of your avatar:
-Max. filesize: 30Kb
-Max. size: 100x100 pixels
-Fileformat: gif, png, jpg or jpeg
-allowed characters in the name: “A-Z”, “0-9”, “-“ and “_”. (Spaces are not allowed!)
Check your Internetbrowser:
-delete the cache of your browser
If you checked all these points and the avatar upload still does not work, then open a new thread.
If you have any suggestions how to improve this check list, then send me please a PM or post in this thread.

@slaughter, useful post. Anyhow, topic title is a little misleading. Maybe change it to "When Avatar-Upload does not work"?

I changed it to "Solution: Avatar-Upload does not work".
Is this better now?

Is there any way to increase that 100*100 limitation, or does that requiring code alteration? |

Requires, at least in edit_profile.php.
And in administration too...

(Spaces are not allowed!)
Very bad! This information must be on profile update page. Is there any way to put this information there? |

Hmm... at least someone got it to work.
I'm still having slight difficulties with just getting it to upload the avatar picture.
And yes. I changed the edit_profile.php so my members wouldn't have to scale their pics down too much..
There are no spaces in the nametag, or weird letters aswell.
Also I noticed that, in the avatar folder is a index.php file, but it's empty... Anything I need to put in that to make it work?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally got my avatars working.
Nobody said anything about update_profile_include.php ....
Which was the main factor of why mine didn't work.
