Thanks! Edited the question with screenshots. I assume this is the problem with Cryptsy?

Yeah, I don't see why that wouldn't work if Cryptsy is working properly.  I may try it myself tonight.  I've seen reddit comments verifying that people have been able to withdraw ether from Cryptsy about a week ago.

Saw that my deposit address had "0x" at the beginning.

I can confirm account id (address?) needs to be prefixed 0x

<p>I am trying to withdraw Ethers from Cryptsy to geth account. Cryptsy says address, where I enter my account id, is invalid. Do I need to create a separate addresses besides running <code>geth account new</code> to create a new account?</p>

I am trying to withdraw Ethers from Cryptsy to geth account. Cryptsy says address, where I enter my account id, is invalid. Do I need to create a separate addresses besides running `geth account new` to create a new account?
