Ok, WHAT is wrong??? I dumped my old avatar and am unable to get any one, of any size to work. Is there something that I am missing?

Not sure Suzanne, no info to help with.

So, I'll review the basics first...

Well, there are many sites with avatars, in fact any picture can be used as an avatar, but the simpler the picture the better it will look....

Here's a some of the internet sites with Disney related avatars...

There are probably LOTS more, but those were at the top of my favorites list...

Now, to add an avatar to your signature is easy...

First, the avatar must be uploaded to a web site.



To place the avatar in the avatar box you first go to My Home at the top of the forum.

Scroll down to My Personal Information and Preferences

Under this you will see;

Personal information, e-mail, password, signature, countdown, etc. Edit

Click on Edit (at the far right)

Scroll to the bottom where you see;

I thought that's what I WAS doing!! I have avatars and pictures saved onto my hard drive, and when I click on "Browse" that's where I'm taken, I click on one of those and text appears in the box, but when I post, it's vanished!Does that give you any ideas as to what I am doing wrong Bill? Thanks!

[stonewall]

Oh wait! Like the trued Cheshire Cat, this one appeared when I posted this!!! I wonder why none of the other's worked- even the small ones?

[LizardCop]

I can't answer why it didn't work before, but I'm glad it's working now...

Another of those computer mysteries
