Avatar?

How do I get an Avatar? I can find it in the "control panel", but enter a url, but it doesn't show up. Is that something you guys put in?

Thanks,
openairboy

At the url you are trying to enter, right click on the picture, then click on "properties". Copy that source and paste it into the url section of your profile. That should accomplish the desired outcome. Make sure the picture is no larger than 150 x 200 pixels. Hope that helps.

If the url is right, it is most likely a size problem. Edit the size to make sure both measures are under 200.

I cannot get my avatar to show up. I changed the settings on the pic to 100X100 and it still doesn't work. All I get is the word "avatar" with no picture.

Suggestions?

Done. I have hosted it on the PB site. I have found that trying to use avatars from pics hosted at blog sites are very unstable.

Fred,

Thanks for your help. I wondered if blog hosting had something to do with it. Though I can put that link in a browser and it comes up fine......technology! I tell ya!

Just for the record; Avatars should be no more than 150 x 150 pixels.
