Title: Avatars ... again.
Post by: Freddie von Rost on May 28, 2007, 02:25:08 pm: I know that on the whole computers and I lead a love / hate relationship but can somebody please tell me how on earth I can add an avatar to my profile.

I read all the previous avatar help posts and I am still confused.

Even when I find a gif image such as: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n314/FreddievonRost/jaglogo1.gif the profile update page refuses to load it. Mesaage reads: Either not an avatar or too large.

Help

I think there is a clue there :-\ :-\

Resize your pic before uploading to photobucket.

My avatar is 114 high by 200 wide (pixels)

Should that not be Club Goddess? God + Fran = Curious?

Look UNDER the avatar.

The person(people) who wrote the software are MCPs.

There was a move to change it to "Club Arnage God/Goddess" but it was mutually decided that it looked rubbish (and also there are so few of us Goddesses a bit unnecessary). So Steve Brown sourced a suitable avatar which I use instead. Quite happy with it now thanks.... :)

This is what the file name for your pic says -
http://%3ca%20href=%22http//photobucket.com%22%20target=%22_blank%22%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb243/championaudi/goodwood054-1.jpg%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22Photo%20Sharing%20and%20Video%20Hosting%20at%20Photobucket (http://%3ca%20href=%22http//photobucket.com%22%20target=%22_blank%22%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb243/championaudi/goodwood054-1.jpg%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22Photo%20Sharing%20and%20Video%20Hosting%20at%20Photobucket)

Picking the bones out of that, I think you really mean -

Try copying and pasting that back into your profile.
