    adding an avatar

    I know it must be easy but I can't figure out how to add a personal avatar. I seem to lost the one I was using.

          I see why our favorite sausage sub wasn't showing up with your postings....you had uploaded the image as your profile image, not as an avatar. I copied the image over to your avatar. You're now good to go!

                -----------
                Find an image you want to use as your avatar.
                Resize the image to 72 dpi by150px by 150px Save it where you can find it on your computer.
                ------------------
                In this forum, go to the top of the page and click on "Settings".
                On the left side of the screen go down until you find "Edit Avatar" and click on it.
                Using Option #2, click Browse and look for your image on your computer.
                Click on it to insert it in to the Option #2 window.
                Once you have the the location in the small window, click on "Save Changes".
                This will upload the image to the forum server.

                That should do it.
                ========================
                This size of the image can be different as long as you do not exceed about 150px in width and height.
                The 72 dpi is the default screen resolution.

                My image is 160px wide and I can see it has been reduced in size.
                I looked at the size of the avatar on Big Dave's post and it was 150 px by 150 px by 72 dpi.
