Empty Avatar Requests

I'm putting this here so that people will be inclined to see it. I may make it a global announcement if I have to.

We have been getting an influx of empty avatar requests on the main site and this is starting to become a problem, though it is not the user's fault. The fault lies in the fact that there is no directions on what to input into the request box. This will be fixed once Rebs gets back, we assure you.

Now, in the meantime, I am going to explain what you need to input. What you need to put is the DIRECT LINK to the image. Absolutely NO BBCode tags or HTML tags. The direct link has to come from an image hosting site like Photobucket or ImageShack. The image has to be 150X150 or less.

This is a direct link: https://2img.net/h/i146.photobucket.com/albums/r257/iggychan444/dragon3.gif

This is a link with the IMG tags: Empty Avatar Requests Dragon3

This is the link with HTML tags: <a href="https://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r257/iggychan444/?action=view&current=dragon3.gif" target="_blank"><img src="https://2img.net/h/i146.photobucket.com/albums/r257/iggychan444/dragon3.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

You do not want the bottom two, you want the top one - the direct link.

If you have any questions, please ask. Avatars can be requested via Settings in the Toolbar.
