I'm sorry if I'm repeating this issue but I cannot find it.  I do not know how to make the UPLOAD AVATARS option work.  I downloaded the ASPSMARTUPLOAD component but cannot make it work.  Also, the LOGO will not show up and I'm using the same format as the default one for my logo.  Can someone just reply to this or email me with instructions to solve this problem?  Thanks!

The avatar upload option needs to be enabled from the admin area.

You then need to use the 'Browse' button that will appear to browse your had-drive for the image you want to upload.

However, allowing users to upload the images and files is a security risk as the server requires that it be setup unsecurly with write permissions enabled for the upload feature to work. Allot of sites that have done this have been hacked recently, so enabling this with write permissions on the server is not advisable, unless you don't mind having your site hacked.
