OK...the 20 times before that I did that...didn't work. Now it works!
Future Reference Noobish PPL like me:
www.photobucket.com
Use IMG address to copy to profile here in the box "Link to offsite AVATAR" Delete the code [IMG] from beginning and [/IMG] from end.
I hope it works for everyone...thanks "THATGUY" and the rest of you. Keep the avatar...we'll be twins

You're doing something wrong. Works for me.
Copy the link, then paste it in "Link to off-site avatar", then click "submit". That's it. Otherwise, there might be something wrong with your account?
EDIT: Haha, this avatar looks good on me

Well in that case...
It is still not working. My file size is fine (1865 bytes), pixels are fine (67x74). LEt me type the exact choices from photobucket with file locations perhaps I'm choosing wrong one.
URL http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/wfg-dude/MrIncredible.jpg
TAG <img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y286/wfg-dude/MrIncredible.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com">
IMG
Those are the 3 choices from photobucket. I tried using URL link but you couldn't even see it so dunno wuts wrong there. Also tried using IMG but I erased teh [IMG] before and after so that it was just the web location because profile won't update with [IMG] in line. My profile updates successfully...just no image.
I have tried pasting the above links in the following places under profile and neither one worked.
Upload Avatar from a URL:

Link to off-site Avatar:
Enter the URL of the location containing the Avatar image you wish to link to.
you should be using this option. if you are using this option, and it is still not working, then you should consider looking into the size of the avatar.
Displays a small graphic image below your details in posts. Only one image can be displayed at a time, its width can be no greater than 9999 pixels, the height no greater than 9999 pixels, and the file size no more than 100 KB.
if it is bigger than 100kb, it will not display.
if it is not bigger than 100kb, and you are using the right option, then check to make sure you are putting in the right URL (and correctly. no extra spaces, or periods, etc). if you are using imageshack, select the "show this image to friends" URL. the one that doesnt have all the html junk on either end.
your current URL, leads to nothing. when i put it into my location bar, and press enter, i get a 404 error.

by the looks of it, you are still trying to upload it to the site.
if after you have tried all 3 of those and still no dice, there is a slight chance your ability to use avatars has been disabled. if this is a the case, it was probably an accident and will be corrected.

Did you actually read all those links and put it into the link to off-site avatar? Instead of URL for the Avatar?

Thanks for the link voices...I read those before I tried loading but still can't get to work. Also read again after you posted them for me just in case I missed something. I did everything listed... Loaded image on photobucket.com, copied the URL link, pasted to URL box on profile....should work!
The message I get is "Profile updated successfully". So, pardon me for asking but....WTF? am I doing wrong?

I used photobucket .com and edited my profile. I chose load an avatar from a URL and copied the link to that box.
What did I do wrong?

Did you try to upload the image to LLD101? If you did, that's your problem - you can't upload images to this site. Use a free image hosting site such as www.imageshack.us or www.photobucket.com and go from there.

Avatar Loaded But Not Up |

I edited my profile and added an avatar. Since it is not up I'm sure I did something wrong if you can forward me to the right person so I can fix it I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Steve
