Description meddy 2011-01-05 12:55:43 UTC 
I have successfully set up empathy to liaise with my existing MSN account. I am able to chat to contacts on MSN via emapathy and whilst i can view other peoples avatar, i am unable to change my own.

I go to personal information and click on the image and select the avatar that i want to use which is a jpg file. It gives me no option to save this, only close. Upon closing, i open a chat window, but my new uploaded avatar is not being used. 

I then go back into personal information and the avatar has disappeared.
