I'm new to the forums, and have been having a pretty fun time so far. However, every time I attempt to set a profile pic, it claims that it was unable to set the new photo and leaves me as part of the silhouette club. I have attempted increasing and decreasing the file size, as well as the size of the image. I have also tried multiple file types including "png" "gif" and "jpeg". None have worked so far.

Welcome to the forum. There is an existing thread on this topic: http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1602122-broken-avatars/ This is a known problem. As of this writing, there is no official word on when it will be fixed.

Thanks so much for the welcome. To be honest...I'm just here for the fishy sticks anyway. Ha!
