Update: I added AVATAR_STORAGE_DIR = MEDIA_ROOT to my settings.py file.
When I load the page, the avatar's src is
"C:/Websites/TPFRepository/projectname/media/username/image.jpg" - which is
correct. if i paste that into Windows Explorer, I do find the image.
Still, it is not displayed on the page. What am I missing? Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Sithu.
