I'm trying to upload an avatar for the wildstar forum and I can't seem to get it to work. There doesn't seem to be any help for resolving the issue and "Failed to set a new photo" isn't exactly a helpful error message. Anyone know why this image won't upload?

			It was posted a bit ago, it's a part of the forums that's temporarily down. So it's not your jpg personally, honest!	
----
			Ah, ok. Thanks :)

			Take the pic to MS paint and make the pixels 100 x 100..then save it as a .PNG. Attempt to upload it again and again..even after it fails. After a few tries it will work

This worked for me. I uploaded 200x200 png, saved for web in photoshop so it was less than 25kb. Had to try and upload it several times but eventually it went in. 
 
Thanks for the tip!

Ppl have problems with this now at early October 2015 and this problem was reported at 2014 for the 1st time. Would think that devs / tech ppl who have created Mmo would've fixed this by now. 
I've been receiving max file size 25kb msg after several 22kb size upload attempt :/ I have only Irfanview for use and with that can't change px, but can set the new size as width & height. I've reduced the size with that by using 180 - 200, but still says error even required size is passed.
 
Please assist.
 
Kind regards: Terry

You just need to try until it works.
Mine was 200x200 with 23kb, after a few tries it worked.

			I switched back and forth with a >25kb png and gif and eventually it took the gif.

			Holy crap what an annoying glitch. Finally got mine to work though.

Finally got it done and using 200x200 Jpeg. Was 10+ fast attempts. A bit shameful work by Forum Mod(s) for not told to tech crew to fix this. 
Now would be good time for it to work cause ppl coming into Nexus after new launch. 
 
Really like my Mordesh Engineer and i wish good weekend for all :)
 
Kind regards: Terry
