I have tried many times to add a picture to my account, but every time I try, it goes onto a page that says this.

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0006'

Overflow: 'CInt'

/My/profile.asp, line 29

Does anyone know what is going on, and how I can fix it?

Yeah, I've been changing my profile pic to random things in my pictures, and it looks like only the brand new one is malfunctioning.

Do you know how to fix it?

*rolls dice* Nope, failed the INT check.

Yeah, I can't set a newly uploaded image to be my profile pic, either.

I think we can add this one to the list of Things That Are Broken On CYS. :/

I'm guessing this has something in common with the duelling bug, i.e., it's trying to assign a number to a variable, but the number is too big for the variable. Basically, people have used up all the possible profile picture 'slots,' if that makes sense.

So I will never be able to have a profile picture?

Um. Well... AlexP could check in at some point, and decide to fix some bugs... 

...sorry to be the bearer of bad news. :/

This must not affect everyone, because I still seem to be able to upload pictures.

But can you set your profile pic to one of your recently-uploaded pictures?

Ahh... nope. But it looks like you're right. The maximum value of a 16-bit signed integer is 32767, so any image with an ID of 32768 or higher will trigger the error.

How do I find out the ID of a picture?

So this  is the final picture that can ever be set as a profile pic?

At least for now. I believe the problem can be solved by changing the integer to the "long integer" variant, which has a much higher limit of 2,147,483,647.

The same solution would fix the Duels bug.

Who cares about pics anyway?  Also,  what is a Capi?
