Avatars
« on: February 08, 2008, 05:56:27 PM »
Can someone give me instructions on how attach an avatar? I poked around my profile but it wasn't obvious to this non-geek. Is there a place where I can browse my pictures? Or is there a spot where I can copy and paste from photobucket? Thanks in advance.

1. Go to your profile
2. Left hand side- click on forum profile information
3. Once there you find the varying options for uploading pictures or choosing one from a list

  • If I agree with you, then we'll both be wrong.

You could use pictures from the internet as I have of any size, the board software resizes them automatically.

If you run into this again where the board does not automatically resize you can use http://tinypic.com/ instead of photobucket.  Tinypic has a resizer and you don't have to create an account to use their services.
