Well they haven't yet, I've just tried it. I thought it was stopping uploading them from phones, but then I saw this thread, but it does say Upload from your computer, so I hope they haven't stopped us uploading from phones.

Don't expect it to be sorted anytime soon none of the MSE team care about this part of the site anymore
Can't sleep, quit counting sheep and talk directly to the shepherd :cool:
I was getting the usual invalid message so tried something else.
I uploaded my already resized (80 x 80) avi to postimage, chose "do not resize". Uploaded, copied the direct link to clipboard and pasted it into the bit that says url from another site, deleting the original http//www.
And that worked!
So now I have an Xmas avi :think:
ETA, Photobucket seems to be absolute pants Use Postimage instead.

Just tried Gill's idea from the post above, but it didn't work for me, perhaps because I use an iPad?
I tried more than one address from my avatar image in Photobucket, but neither worked,
Edit. It didn't work from Photobucket, but it DID work from postimage.com!
Thanks for the tips, Gill!m:T
