I assume that you are trying to upload a picture to use as your avatar.

The two most common reasons that pictures are not accepted are:

1.) you are trying to upload an image file of the wrong type. I think jpg and gif are the only two image file types allowed (bmp, tif, etc. aren't accepted as they are not compressed file types).

2). You are trying to upload an image file that is too big in size. The limit is either 75K or 150K, I don't remember which. So if you're trying to upload a picture that you took with a digital camera it's probably too large unless you have run it through a file conversion program or are uploading a thumbnail of the photo. Check the properties of the image file and observe its size.
