Can't Change My Avatar.

Not sure why. It just won't change when I select it.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

There is a limit of 48 x 48 pixels and maximum size of 10 kilobytes. If you are trying to load a graphic from another Website then it quite likely exceeds those limits.

I will log out and log in again and see if that works.

I am very sad about this.

I believe that you have to exit the profile screen and check one of your posts to see if it appears. I don't believe that when you select your choice it appears in the edit profile screen.
