I've come across this in many forums (eg. http://codeguru.com/forum) where they say :
Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 50 by 50 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).
My image I try to upload is 80 x 69 -> 4KB. 4KB is far smaller then 19.5KB yet Im not able to upload. The checking seems to be both and not either.
Most of these forums have the same forum skin(bulletin) but I don't know which one (defintely not phpBB)
Any ideas ?
Thanks
