Cannot load Custom Group Icon in Forum Social Groups

I hope this is the right place for this question..

Every time I try to upload an icon for my social group it tells me the upload failed. I've made sure my icons are less and 200x200 or 65.535KB, and it fails with both the external host option and upload option. Tried Chrome and Firefox.

Now that I look, even our individual icons are just question marks. Is this broken for everyone?

Thanks!

Thanks! Is this official information, or just your experience?

Certainly seems that way. I'm hoping to change that, but I need the icons to be working first. Any idea who I would PM for official info on it?

Official. You can't upload to the forum.

You can try Avatea or TheOcho, but I doubt you'll get anything other than "sorry, we're not going to allow uploading to the forums".

I'm sorry if I'm being obtuse but... I'm just trying to load an icon for the Group. Is there a seperate policy for uploading a personal icon and a group icon? I guess you've already said that they're broken, but I thought I'd at least inquire. Social Groups are great function for SGs that need a quick forum solution. Again, thanks for the info.

Understood. They need to update that icon interface someday and remove that option. The external file option gives me an "invalid url". I PMed The Ocho. Thanks for your help!
