Hey guys!

How do I add an avatar to my posts? I see that you guys have a great ones and I want to add one now.

first you have to decide on a photo. i think you have to link to it somewhere online. once you have the URL for the photo, you to go to My Home, Main Configuration and Personal Information. down toward the bottom of the page is where you post the URL for the photo that you want to use.

hope this helps!

You can upload images you have saved on your computer to an image and file hosting site called Walagata then link to this site. They're free, and that's the company I use. They only allow one account per household, but it's ok for me. HTH

For those of u that don't have webspace to link your avatars to...just PM me and I will add it to my earthlink site. I only use it for a few files...so I have a lot of space.

Grrr.. I can't get it to work! I don't know what I'm doing wrong- my pic is on my yahoo site, and it's 80x80. What's the problem?

 

[pebbles]

I don't think yahoo allows direct links. Try www.photobucket.com They're free and they let you link to other sites.

Thanks, but I've used it before on another message board, and at first it didn't owrk, but the admin. said there was some code that needed to be added on. I'll still head over to photbucket, just get to get things moving!

 

[pebbles]

I've always had problems with Yahoo myself, but definately give photobucket a try.
