hello and welcome.

 

the bit you are looking for is in your profile, if you look under the green banner, you'll see profile there, click on it and it will take you to all of your personal waffle.

 

the picture is called the avatar. if you give me a minute, ill find the instructions to adding more info to your profile - its under a sticky on one of the threads.

 

back soon

How to do your signature is in this thread - http://club.omlet.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12932 and this is how you add an avatar under your name.

 

To add an avatar to your profile, you need to trawl through the internet search engines (Google's good) looking for "animated avatars" or "animated GIFs". When you find one you like - it doesn't have to be animated if you'd prefer a less manic one - you click the right hand button of your mouse over it and a menu will come up. The picture has to be less than 12K or no more than 80 pixels high or wide so click on "Properties" to see if it's the right size. On the menu, select "Save picture as" - in the box that comes up when you do that, you can choose where the picture will be stored on your computer. I always put them straight into "My Pictures" which is the file the computer automatically selects for you. Click "save". The picture is then stored in a file ready for use. Right, now go into "Profile" in this forum and find the "Upload Avatar from your machine" bit at the bottom. You need to click on the "Browse" button to find where your picture is stored. You'll see the "My Pictures" file automatically appear when you do that and all you have to do is find the name of the picture you've saved. Double click on that name and it should appear in the box next to the "Browse" button. All you now have to do is click "Submit" and it should be in your profile.

oh, thanks Kate, I couldn't find it and then I got distracted (not like me )

[lost-sheep]

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... i think its too big... can i make it smaller???

 

i feel a ickle bit embarressed now!!

[Guest]

If you save it to a photobucket account, then it will give you an option for 'avatar' size and then it should work!

 

Welcome to the forum, by the way!

Open it up in something like Micrsoft Photo editor and re size it to 80 pixels, that'll do it.

kk ive had acloser look at it and it says its

11.6 kb

236 pixels wide

and 193 high.... wot does that mean??? i am so very useless with all of this!!

You can resize pics in MS photo editor but i don't know about animations.

[Mrs Frugal]

It sounds too big still, I'm afraid. It needs to be no bigger than a maximum of 80 pixels wide by 80 pixels high. If you're having problems, let me know and I'll send you my e-mail address so you can send it to me and I'll see if I can resize it for you .

[lost-sheep]

i tryed resising but it just turned it into a picture!!!! arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

i am getting soo fed up with this!! hmphhh

 

thank for da offer tho!!

 

any other ideas???

 

i am so very very dosy!! lol hope i can get it 2 work soon...

[Mrs Frugal]

I've sent you a Private Message with my email address Lost-sheep. Send me the picture and I'll try to resize it for you.

[lost-sheep]

kk i think ive sent it... let me know if it worked...!!!

[Mrs Frugal]

The email hasn't arrived yet, lost-sheep but it's notoriously slow! When it arrives, I'll see what I can do for you .

[lost-sheep]

Hi & Welcome to the forum

[Mrs Frugal]

Hi Lost-sheep, there's still no sign of the e-mail, I'm afraid. Do you want to try again? If you found the picture on the internet, you could post a link to it instead if you like?

[Jules.]
