Im not sure if you can help. I simple Choose the image that i want to use, it loads it up and says that my changes have been saved. I then go to my home page and it's still the same picture <_< However if i use one of twitter's custom made it changes it <_< I have wondered if it's the size thats the problem but surely it can cope with most wallpapers...nothing out of the ordinary

Thats very cool of you..or sweet depending on what sex you are I have already downsized it too 640 x 480. Maybe you can make more sense of it. Nonetheless knowing i need someone everytime i want to change it is so annoying! i'l decide on a pic and pm you
