:laugh: Oops.

Sounds like we may have an overactive .htaccess directive. I will let Anthony know.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Just noticed this. Is your image file type .jog? That would trigger such an alert of course, as it is an unknown filetype.

no, it is not. It uploads the picture and I can even resize it, but the problem happens during the saving. The file name is "PDPSgreytone2 cropped sq.jpg". I removed all the spaces and tried again: www.joomlabamboo.com/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&tab=getAvatarsTab#getAvatarsTab

Sorry about the trouble.

Not sure why you are seeing that error.

Does it happen in the avatar tab when you hit the update profile link underneath the avatar not he profile page?

Thanks Anthony

no problem.

It happens in the user page www.joomlabamboo.com/community

I "chose file" and select the picture, then "Next >>"

On www.joomlabamboo.com/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&tab=getAvatarsTab#getAvatarsTab I then see the picture (see attachment 1) and the press "Next >>"

and then I'll get the error (attachment 2)

did you see my response?

It is still not working ..

.. also tried Safari ( 5.1.5 ) and Firefox 11. I'm using Chrome 18 (OS X Lion).

.. also tried a completely different image.

No 'luck'

Sorry for the delay on this.

I think I found the culprit.

Do you mind trying again?
