    clraik profile background picture dissapears

    Ok so I would like to make my profile a bit obnoxious different, however each time I upload a background it gets automatically removed without any messages to explain why it does that. To be clear: I submit the image, background goes up fine, tiled, just the way I want it, I get a message that my background it set. I save changes. The moment I refresh, the background is gone. Could it be:

    1. File size too large? The size is 92kb.

    2. Weird url? It's not hosted on imgur.

    Thanks for any help!

    Have you tried changing other parts of your profile and seeing if the settings save (text color)? If so, it's likely a problem with your file/image resource?

    All good in terms of changing the text color/font/size, that stays. I will try again today with the same image but hosted on a different resource.

    Hey @(you need an account to see links) - background images (you need an account to see links) before they can be used in profile customisations (external sources such as imgur won't work). (you need an account to see links) You can find the link on the left side of your profile (under the Friends module) when you click on your username in the top right.

    Ah, I see! Don't know how I missed albums entirely and I think I was looking in the wrong FAQ initially. Everything works perfectly now, thank you!

    Also initially I tried following the advice given here. I realize now that Dreams must have had the same problem as me:
