It appears that anyone who used "I will upload my own avatar" has a broken avatar.  I just uploaded mine to the uploader and then set it to use that image as my avatar to fix it.

That's the first thing I tried, but it didn't work.

Did you upload it to the actual GW Uploader, and set your avatar to be the web address of the uploaded file?  I wasn't very clear in my post.  Because it worked fine for me.  If it didn't, the uploader may be broken for some, but it works fine for me.

Yeah, I had to upload my avatar in the uploader and then set avatar by URL in the Profile Options, but it worked fine for me.

When I click on the Uploader it ask me to log in (even though I'm logged in) and then it takes me back to the index.

Ah, I see; not something that was an issue before the server change, unfortunately. I'll have to fix that. Thanks for your help, Jeff!

When I uploaded my avatar, which is within regulation size I got this message:
"The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved."

Again, use the GW Uploader.

Most of the problems I noticed have already been stated by everyone else. However, I did have to reassign my time offset.
