Hi, I had the same problem. It caused by read write permission issues. In the FAQ they recommend you CHMOD the images/avatars folder to 777 with your favourite ftp client. That's a big security risk though because, as I understand it, it allows people to upload and run scripts. Others recommend CHMOD 755 but I never tried it; I switched to vBulletin for other reasons. Cheers, Paz.
