1. Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.

  2. For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.

  3. Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.

    I don't know if it's size, format, or what. I select it from the folder, the website loads, and then... doesn't actually upload anything. No error message to help me out either.

    Here's the image:

    It's a matter of size. Your picture is too big.

    What's the size limit. Maybe I can edit the quality.

    I'm not sure... but trying to use what is a wallpaper as an avatar isn't a good idea.

    I would say you might want to see about cropping it down to 250x250 and it'll definitely work... but try shrinking it down to 1/4 of the image size first.

    or maybe it''s the file like you can't use png as an avatar image and the avatar pic file thing says only jpeg and 2 others work i think you should try a pic converter to change it to jpeg as mine is like thousands of pixels big
