Anyone know how to add an Avatar?

[T206Collector]

You can upload one (or link to one) through your "User CP". It's fairly straightforward.

edited to add: obviously I was wrong! Hmmmm....

[Jacklitsch]

I've uploaded a "profile" pic but that doesn't appear to show as an avatar.

[Matt]

Avatars:
User CP ->Edit Avatar

should be the 6th option from the top on the left side.

[T206Collector]

Me too and mine neither.

I do not have "edit avatar" as an option in my User CP -- and it is not the 6th option either.

[Bill Stone]

That was easy.

[Jacklitsch]

Nope. No "Edit Avatar" option.

[Matt]

OK - thanks for that feedback - I'll see what happened - it must have gotten disabled somehow.

Guys - let me know what you see when you click on this:

[T206Collector]

It gives me an "edit avatar" box but won't let me uncheck "don't use avatar":

Avatars are small graphics that are displayed under your username whenever you post.
Do not use an avatar
Note: if you have a custom avatar selecting this option will delete it.

autograf-
OK - it is actually enabled and working. In order to post a quick reply, you need to click the bottom right button on the post you are replying to (it looks like a quill and paper). This way the system knows what post you are replying to.

In fact, if you read the instructions in the greyed out quick reply area, it says exactly that. I missed it too :)

why do I only see a thumbnail ??

When you upload images from your own computer, they display as a thumbnail. But, when a user clicks on them, they are shown full size. This is done to save server bandwidth and keep the forum moving faster. If you refer to an image already online then it displays full size.

Matt,

If you bring your image in as an embedded image from Picassa or Photobucket, etc., you can show your image at actual size. If you use Net54 to actually host your image, you'll be limited to the thumb nail.

[Matt]

Just to clarify - your full image is still available but what gets shown inline in the thread is the thumbnail. When anyone clicks the thumbnail, they will see it fullsize.

[John V]

will I attach using the URL?

[Matt]

will I attach using the URL?

No. To reference an image already online, you click on the Insert Image icon (looks like a mountain), located in the area on top of where you type, 5th from the right in the bottom row. It will open a window asking for the URL.

[Jim VB]

John V,

When I did it with Photobucket, I went to the image, clicked "share", then went down to the third option which is "HTML." Cut and paste that info into the post and you can skip the "mountain" icon.

(How ironic is it that I'm giving instructions?)

Just cut and paste the HTML text from Photobucket into the text of your message and then click "preview" before you post. That way you can see if you're doing it right.

Oddibe and I were drafted the same year and played the same position. I always was surprised he didn't have a better big-league career. I remember how much scouts loved his tools when he entered pro ball.

:confused:

Paul - does the screen go black or just get dark? If it gets dark, but you can still see everything, then that's actually correct - at that time, it's downlaoding the image - depending on the size of the image and your connection speed, it might take a bit - let it sit like that for a minute or so and see what happens.
