I had trouble with that too at first. If you still have the on both ends, I think that keeps it from working. If that is not what you meant...oops.

I'm having trouble trying to use a custom pic as my avatar. I put the url in where my pic is but cant get it to show up any help would be greatly appreciated If HD's suggestion doesn't work, what size is the pic? When I make avatars, I have to make sure they are sized at 100X100 (max allowed) so they can be used on the boards. If it's too big, such as when I tried to use a nine panel, it will not put it up on the boards. (I even sized the pic to 100X100 in the dimensions bit). Also, if the pic is rectangular, you might try two different dimension, i.e. 100X80, to get it to fit in the space. If you'd like, you can send me an PM with the pic and I'll see what I can do. Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for the help melmac and hd Got it working now You're welcome, magic, glad to be of help. I had to learn the hard way too, but it helped with learning how to make avatars and signature logos that wouldn't blow up the computer (well, seem to )

i can't believe this site doesn't have custom avatars for members to choose from. It's easy as pie to take out the canned ones and put in GAH, Ralph, Pam and Bill avatars, after all. I'll be happy to explain to the mods how to do it if they wanna

I'll be happy to explain to the mods how to do it if they wanna Billswoman, I've made several avatars (some of which are my current one and the sigs). The two Davidson Disciple ones in HD's sig are also examples. They're all in the Title Images folder, along with fake commercials, larger sig icons, etc. I haven't made many Bill ones, but if you'd like me to design one for you, please feel free to ask and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks, MelMac, but in this case, I meant when you go to "Modify Profile" and the button that says "Avatar". When you click on it, only the canned proboards avatars appear. I was wondering why those hadn't been removed, and GAH-related ones put in. It's easily done; we've got tons of Culp-oriented avatars to choose from over on Culpalicious, ones that the creators don't mind sharing with the masses. We all have our personal favorites, of course, that are ours' alone (like "My Man Maxwell" is mine, lol!)
I'll be sure to check out more in the Title Images you mentioned.
I'm good on avatars/icons, though; silverhammer and mrsmaxwell offer to make me some alla time, and banners too. Their banners are so lovely, I don't even know where to begin (assuming I could even make one, which is a big assumption).

With MelMac's permission, I will add her custom avatars as our official board avatars, which can be chosen from the drop-down menu in your profile. I suppose I could have done this earlier, but I spend most of my time on this board making sure HD doesn't get something past the censor again. If anyone wants to volunteer to make additional avatars, go for it! Post the finished product here, and PM me if I fail to add it in a timely manner

I like the one with the blue. hmm I may incorporate it. Do you have a larger size and or photobucket? Right now, I only have it in the avatar size (100X100 pixels). I can make another one in a signature or larger size if you'd like. Just PM me with the size and I'll make another one. As far as my Photobucket, just search for mascotajester. I only have a couple of actual GAH pics in there, but all of the avatars I've drawn are in there as well as the ones in my signature and HD's signature.

Well you never know...I AM pretty clever. I noticed that now MyTatuo has taken to locking random threads like the avatar one he created so that I can't make comments on it. I guess if he locks out the whole board to me, he won't have to worry about running around watching me. Of course, like his captions say...that is the other board.

I will concede you are clever in that regard at times (and, I've done it too in slight ways ). Well, to be fair, more than likely he probably did that to make sure that all the avatars available were in an easy to read format. This will also help keep avatars from being lost. Some people will search through a whole thread to find the perfect avatar/whatnot to use. I've seen that too many times on other boards, such as FORT. But, that doesn't mean you can't say anything about them here. So, what were you going to say about the avatars.

I was going to tell Maxwell-FBI that MyTatuo didn't design them...or at least, not most of them, so he should not be telling MyTatuo "great job."
