    Hello.

    While messing with my Options screen, in the About Me tab, I tried to include some more info, namely my country. I clicked "Apply Changes" and the page refreshes, but it resets my choice. Closing the Options screen and checking my profile confirms that no change was made.

    Thank you.

    Let's go ahead and have you try the Fuse settings until we can get one page for all settings created.http://fuse.gamespot.com/settings/preferences/

    Yes, that solved it.

    Only difference I found is that you can't (apparently) change your avatar to something from an external link, but I realize the site is currently a WIP, so it's all good.

    Thank you

    You should be able to change your avatar if you use a site other than gamespot to host it. Are you getting a error?

    Please vist the Otaku Table and NSOTU

    From the Fuse profile, I don't see an option to use an external image.

    From Gamespot's Options screen, yes, I can add a link to an external source, but (as I pointed out in the RESOLVED ISSUE: Profile images from userimage.gamespot.com return! (update) thread) some pages didn't recognize my external avatar. Not sure if it's fully resolved, as I haven't tested it again.
