Avatars not uploading - Cloudflare problem?

I went to change my avatar to my Christmas avatar and when I try to upload it, I get the message 'upload of file failed'. When I upload it to Imgur or my company website and try to use that link, I get 'invalid url'. I know it's not the file size or pixel size, I've used this avatar many years before with no problems.

Tried both FF & IE, and I tried to use the moderator panel too - no dice. I'm thinking Cloudflare borked this.

Any suggestions owner/admins?
 
I can't change my avatar either, was working a few weeks ago. Stuck with xmas avatar forever.
 
Yeah I changed it at the start of December.

Still can't change it, on the upside I won't have to change it this december :bleh2:
 
I can also confirm that this does not work. I tried using two different image upload sites and both the SSL and non-SSL versions of Rage3D, but I still had no luck.

All of us who have reported the problem so far are either current or former staff members, which means that we have had our account privileges modified. Perhaps that has something to do with the issue. Could someone who has never been on staff try changing their avatar? There is no risk to you; you will still keep your current avatar it the process fails.

Curio, you could also try creating a new, pristine test account to see if you can change the avatar on that. Just be sure to delete it after so that you do not violate forum policy (for too long). ;):p

I just tried it with Chrome and got the same thing: "upload of file failed" when trying to get it from my computer, and "Invalid URL\Invalid File" when trying to bring it over from Imgur.
