Avatars.

Sorry guys, even though there are settings for them in software, Ray said he didn't think they worked. I tried and Tom tried and neither of us could get it to work.

But you can put an image in your signature. Let's try to keep them small though, if you need help resizing them Tom or I can do it for you.

Thanks for checking, Terry. I liked the way it looked the first night the new software was up; it's too bad it didn't take. Using avatars instead of pics in the signature makes the threads flow more easily.

And Bill doesn't know as much about this type thing as Terry and Tom so nothing I can add.

Isn't an Avatar a prehistoric bird? Why so much interest in something that's extinct? :wink:

 

BDR if it worked for you once try it again. I either got script errors when I tried to upload it to the site or when I tried to link to it I got no errors but also got no avatar.

Hey... that's not so tough.... 8)

 

OK Scott... what is the secret?

I am getting cannot modify header warnings.

 

Give up my secret?? NEVER!! AHAHAHAHAHAAHAA


Well... at least not until Rick notices...

 

I feel smarter just being around Scott.

Guess I can fess up now. I lifted mine straight from the Agtimes avatar storage site. You can get just about any team there.

Sorry I didn't mention that all you have to do is link, rather than upload your avatar...

 

That much I knew. But all the images I would like to use are too big and even when I resize them to less than 80x80 pixels I am struggling to get under the 6K file size limit.

Terry

 

That'll have to do for now!

 

So if you're the Brain... which one of the Mods is Pinky???

:twisted:

 

OK, I found the secret.

As Ray thought, the system is not allowing the upload of avatars.

Scott actually linked to an avatar on another site which is an option in your profile. Uploading to the server is not possible but linking is. I couldn't figure out how he was getting around the upload error issues. Now I know.

If you have an avatar that you want to use, you should be able to upload it to your ISP provided web space and then type in a link to it in your profile. Or, if you find one at the site that Scott mentioned, www.agtimes.com, you can right click it and select properties. the highlight and copy the path to that file. Then edit your profile and paste that path into the "avtar link from another site" box.

 

Thanks, Tom.

Still having problems with my signiture

 

Mine is not exactly what I wanted but it will do for now.

Terry, feel free to take it if you wish! :wink:

 

Let's give this one a try......oops, didn't work. Back to the drawing board. Stay tuned!

Boo-Yah!!

Terry

 

Good one Bobda!!

 

Tennessee Tom,

Thanks for the help, I wondered why my uploads were not working. :roll:
