BuddyPress.org

After listening to Andy’s advise I think I found the problem.

I got rid of all my files except for my tables, and reinstalled a fresh WPMU and buddypress. By accident I didn’t upload the htaccess file–the thing is I realized when the htaccess file is not uploaded the avatars work. However, all pictures on the website do not work.

If I delete line 6 below, then the avatars appear to work. However, if deleted then all pics on the site don’t work. I hope this provides some insight into the problem.
