How to upload an avatar

[handlebar]

Can someone give me instructions on where to find one and how to upload it? I would be most appreciative and don't forget, I am computer literate to a small degree so let's keep it simple.

What sort of avatar would you like? Surely you have something in mind...on your computer? From a website? PM me if you don't want to post the particulars here.

1. Click User CP in the blue navigation bar at the top of any page.

2. Click on "Edit Avatar" about midway down in the left column.

You can now select an avatar from the ones I have made available, but you can also upload them (if you have one on your computer that you like) or link to one with the graphic URL on another website. I strongly recommend against linking to graphics hosted elsewhere as that method can drastically slow down the loading of the forum, or if the site is down/unavailable the graphic will simply not display.

That's a nice avatar but I didn't load it. Who ever did, thanks! I'll stay with that one.

If you want a different one and have trouble, shoot me a PM....

I read your profile and saw that you played banjo so I found you a neat one.
I love banjo but, sadly I cannot play any musical instrument.
Glad that you like it.
You can change it anytime by following the above instructions provided by Bumper.
You'll need to pay attention to the size limitations and/or the byte restrictions though.
