Does anyone know how it is possible to upload avatar pictures? Getting rid of the standard ones seems to be desireable after some time ... :geek:

You can log onto the website. When you do, you see your avatar, and there's a button to change the image. When I change it on the website, it's reflected when I play with the client.

Note: I have a Korean account, so I don't know if all options are available to English accounts.

I noticed that option on the website some time ago, but it didn't work (tm).

I tried it again today, still doesn't work.
When I submit the jpg image I'd like as an avatar the page loads a short while and then stops, and nothing is changed pretty much (as if I hadn't pressed "submit").

I think I actually got an error message earlier saying my image had to be smaller than x kb (which it was) and in jpg format (which it also was).

So maybe it's just a problem with the English version of the site?
Or maybe it's a problem on my end.

I also couldn't change my avatar through the web interface, but it didn't really surprise me, as things not working is pretty much the norm from my experience on Tygem (and Wbaduk).
We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.

Changing avatars works on the Korean site, so I would guess that it's an issue with the English version of the site, which is probably lower priority for whatever reason.

Yeah, playing games work in the English client, but not a lot of the other parts work well.

I use the Japanese client for both but if you want the features of the English client, you're expected to pay. At least the English one is free.
