Can I change my avatar???

[david&maddie4ever]

Hello, all!

I was wondering if I could change my avatar. I've never actually changed it before, so I don't know how to do it. The only reason I ask is because the last time I downloaded an avatar, it caused all sorts of problems! Jenny helped me out there!

Hopefully, this one won't be as bad, but I'd appreciate it if somebody told me what to do. Thanks!



Here's the link:

Wait a minute...I can't make up my mind!

I have another pic. If anybody has an opinion, I'd appreciate it! Which do you like better?



...or...



I stink at decision-making! HELP!!!

I like the first one, but I will resize them both for you.

All avatars here can be ANY size AT or UNDER 150 x 150 pixels (the pictures you posted were bigger than 150 x 150), so I have resized them for you. Here is the first one:

To change your avatar, click on the blue "user cp" button near the top of the page...

When the page loads, click on the "Edit Options" link (3rd from the left when it finishes loading). Once you're in that page, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page where it says "Avatar" with a picture of your current avatar and there should be a button under your current avatar that says "Change Avatar". Click on that, then let the page load again...Be sure you have saved the pictures I resized for you, then go to the bottom of the page and where you see "You can upload an avatar from your computer:", click on the "Browse" button and look for where you saved that image to, then once you find that, hit OK and click on the "Submit Modifications" button and you should be good to go.

Thanks a lot, PZelda!

I'll try that now. I wouldn't expect it to work, though.

I'll tell ya what happens!

Okay...

It's saying that it's not saved under a "valid JPG file". How do I do that?

Thanks!

Weird. As far as I know, it should have worked.

Hey!

Where do you save your avatars? I just put the address in Word and saved it under "My Pictures". I did put a ".jpg" at the end, though. Should I have done that? How do you do yours?

Thanks!

I just right click on the pictures, click on "Save Picture As" then save it to desktop...

That's why. I don't suggest saving it in Word.

[david&maddie4ever]

YES!!! It worked! That was so easy! Thank you guys so much!!!

BTW: Now, if I wanna resize my pics myself, I can just do it in Paint?

Thanks again...
