Hi I've tried adding an avatar to my profile but it's not showing, regardless of saving the changes. The avatar is located at www.siliconeswamp.co.uk/aurora_avatar.jpg and is 100x100. I've also tried a .gif version. Any ideas? |

Fixed! I think you must have not entered the dimensions on your actual profile or something of the sort, I'm not exactly sure but I tried it and it worked just fine for me.

I entered the URL and simply "100" and "100" in the dimension fields. Was I meant to put 100px? Anyway, it's working so thanks for that!
Is that an XJS in your avatar?

Nope just 100 and 100, not sure why it didn't work for you! And yeah that's my old XJS, I used to have a black 89 V12 coupe. I absolutely love the car. My parents bought it new in 89 and i drove it for most of 2007-2008 but it had electrical problems/ an engine fire and circumstances forced me to sell it. Huge mistake. I'll get it back someday though!

Yeah, those Jags are notorious for electrical problems, hence why no one really wants them these days. There's a company in the UK that will refit the entire car with modern electrics. It's amazing how they turn out, but it can cost up to $50,000 to get it done.

No kidding? That's quite a sum, but it would be nice to have for sure. I believe it was the ignition in mine that caused it, despite the stock Magneti Merelli system.
What year/body were your jags?

It's very rare to find another jag owner who actually likes talking about their car, especially on an aurora forum haha. You all hush up or I'll permaban you. ;D

Haha! Hey, those Jags were amazing back in the day. The V12 version of the XJS, or the older XJ12 were sweet rides. 70mph in 1st gear? Yes please! Still, can't beat the 4.0 Northstar V8. All cars should sound like that  |
