Oolite Bulletins

(I didn't find a fitting board so I am writing this here)

I can't upload my avatar (size etc. correct) for this forum, getting an error all time. Is this because I am a new user? The errors are displayed in php above the page (page itself says it's ok):

Warning: move_uploaded_file(./images/avatars/1583561629499747b76a45e.gif) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/aegidian/public_html/bb/includes/usercp_avatar.php on line 288

Kind regards,
Dima

Go to the last page of the spam thread - there was something nasty lurking in the avatar folder so Ahruman has pulled the plug on avatar uploads until he and Giles can have a chat about what to do about it.

Ok, phew at least it wasn't my fault then Can I select a custom avatar or send mine to someone manually?
