HAAALP

As you can see, my precious avatar isn't up anymore.  This is because the imageshack image expired today apparently.  So now i have it on Photobucket, but it's not letting me put the image into my avatar.  So help?  Please?

I can host it for you - it would be a temporary fix, since I'm hosting mine on some space I got from my university, but it would be a fix.

At least until your honor can find a home.

I don't know why it's not accepting the URL.  Like, I've done it from the Phototbucket copy to clipboard function, using each of the four options (only the direct link should work), and that gives a Photobucket site image (like, "click this to go to photobucket!").  Otherwise it's a broken image.  Viewing the image and copying that url also is a broken image.  So if I can fix it to Photobucket it'll be permanent, which is better.  I shouldn't have to need a new hosting site.

That's because Photobucket is... Photobucket. I've noticed a lot of broken avatars due to Photobucket.

May I suggest Imgur?

Imgur does not require subscription?

At least, last time I checked.
