thats what happened to me too, so i would suggest going the "image url" route. this might take a while, the whole registration thing, but its totally worth it. so go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and sign up for a free account. now you get free icons, aim themes, and free IMAGE HOSTING. click that. upload the pic and get the url for the image. only copy the http:// to the end of the url then paste the url in the "IMAGE URL" thing in the advicenators settings place. hehe, hope i helped - shelby

1) Go to edit settings
2) Go to user pictures
3) Upload the pic you want. HAS TO BE .jpg, .gif, or
.png. Other files won't be accepted
4) That's it!

It means that you probably tried to load a .bmp image. Bitmap images aren't supported on this site. You can change a .bmp image to a .jpeg image if you save it as a .jpeg in either Adobe Photoshop or Ulead PhotoExpress. When you're going to save it, you can save it as file type ".jpeg" instead of ".bmp"

Other than that, you can go to the image through "My Computer", right click on it, click on properties, and change the image from a bmp to a jpeg. This doesn't work on all computers, but it worked on my old one, so maybe it'll work for you. The best way is to edit it through one of the editors I mentioned above. If you edit things in Paint (the default microsoft drawing thinger), they are automatically saved as bitmaps.
