Adding Your Personal Picture/Photo ("Avatar" ;)
« on: September 21, 2012, 10:25:18 AM »
You too can look as good as Des!

It's very easy on this forum, and here's how:



So, in simple terms:

Click Profile
Choose Forum Profile

If you want to use a photo you have (or have seen and like) on the internet, select Specify avatar by URL and then on the right hand side, enter the details of the photo.

(You can right click on any photo on the internet and select "copy image location" - do that and paste it in the right hand side box - make sure you only have one http:// at the beginning).

If you want to use a photo you have on your computer, (similar to how you add your photos to Facebook) select upload an avatar. A "Browse" box will appear, click that and find your photo.

AND THE FINAL IMPORTANT STEP...

Click Modify Profile at the bottom of the page to start showing your avatar  :)

Any questions or problems just shout.
