wait are you having problems here on daniweb?

Hello Zachery,

I am trying to upload a picture from my computer. In the "Edit Avatar" page, under "Custom Avatar", there is a heading which says: "Upload an Avatar From Your Computer" and "Browse". When I browse to the location of my picture, the location "C:\Documents and Settings\SunRunner\My Documents\My Pictures\Scrap.shs" is entered into the box. When I hit Save changes, I get the "POST requests from foreign hosts are not allowed" message. Hope that gives you the info you need.

Thanks loads,

SunRunner.

Yes, he's having a problem trying to have an avatar here on DaniWeb. Remember, no posting links to your own sites is permitted except in the Site Reviws forum and Webmaster Marketplace :)

I had the same problem once but it disappeared suddenly as it came .... try turning off your firewall and then try again....

Thanks NANOSANI,

I'll try the firewall thing. I'll let you know if it worked.
