No. It's a separate product. What issue do you get when you try to upload or link it?

I tried uploading a .jpg (more than one, actually) that is 100x100 pixels and 3.67kb - and I also uploaded that pic to my FaceBook and tried using the url - each time, when I click save changes, it just says "Invalid File."

Same. I can't upload a custom avatar either. I thought it was me doing something wrong. Or that i had to pay for a membership. which i did. maybe that hasn't gone through. But, i have the option for a custom avatar now.

the message i get is also

... invalid file.

also got

upload failed due to failure writing temporary file

hey...I have a couple questions....
1. when I log on to BFP, and home page loads for me to sign in, I am all of a sudden getting these dang popups, I never had those before. There isn't a "close" option to close the suckers out...what is making this happen, please?
2. At the same time of the big popup ads occuring, there started to be an unusual occurence on any thread, post,etc I go to. For example, on someone else's post, the words "relationship status" is highligted in blue and with two lines underneath. In posts, a word or words will be doubly underlined and highlighted in blue....making me crazy here...lol
