Mine will not load either. Looks like a problem after the move. It will not let me upload anything from my computer when I click the browse icon.
I get this message.
An Error Has Occurred!
The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved.

You'll have to choose the "Direct Link" to an image in your Photobucket. But most of the time that image is too large to use.
I always use the thumbnail-version because that's usually the right size (165pixels wide) for webforums. Although this forum 'wants' to see a square sized image, otherwise it will stretch it, like the image I used for you.
To select the thumbnail-image, just right-click on the thumbnail, and copy it's weblocation, for instance;
Store your photos and videos online with secure storage from Photobucket. Available on iOS, Android and desktop. Securely backup your memories and sign up today!
... and put this into your avatar-field;

"max image size: 640 x 480 (options)"
.. which is located right under the word Mobile Phone and above the first browse button.
Click on the word "option" and chose Message Board option. You only have to do this once and all your photos from that point on, will be displayed perfectly to fit the screen.
Your welcome brother ;D
Hope that helps someone.
