buffie Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Now once again I am confused I have finally mastered the posting a pic in a topic (see virtual cards!) but couldn't get the one I really wanted to download Anyway I can't change avatars because I have no gallery and I can't find anything else so I am finding the changing avatars of omleteers both and I feel indequate!! Could you all just not be quite so clever with 'seasonal' thing here and quirky thing there. Stick to what I know and help a 'Buffie' this christmas!! BBx It's not fair!!

Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 DON'T DO IT BUFFIE!! There's something nasty lurking in the workings of the forum and if you change your avatar, you might not get it back and will probably end up with nothing if you have the same luck as I did! You could end up looking like me ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 So you look like you do because you were 'saving the world' and now you're stuck like THAT! Oh I'm glad I am always and I want super pants back!! Edited because I was nasty to kate and I felt bad!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 My Mum always used to say to me if I pulled a face that the wind would change and I'd stay like that......looks like she was right ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Kate ... I can't quite work out which eye is looking at me . Sorry Buffie for changing Avatars ... will go back to something in 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Good job I don't need contact lenses! It would cost me a fortune ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 Sarahjo, don't listen to me I talk nonsense. I wish I could be as clever! BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I'm not clever at all and can just about write on here. I wouldn't mind being a green eyed monster or a Christmas tree or Father Christmas, anything is better than a "Ooops, word censored!"ody.

Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 It's easy Kooringa. Do a google for "animated gifs" or "christmas animated gifs" and there are loads to choose from. When you find one you like, click the right mouse button over it and up will come a menu. Highlight the url address of the picture (should start with http and end in .gif), right click on the hightlighted url and select "copy". Come back to the forum and go into your profile. In there you'll see a bit near the bottom which says "Link to off-site Avatar:" and paste that copied url into the box by the side and click submit. You should have an avatar!! If you get stuck, give me a shout and I'll help you out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Oh thank you Kate - you are naked now like me. Shall we go off an google one together? See you at the google in a minute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 It's the gremlin, Kooringa. It likes to keep me busy!! I've had to resubmit Mel's and mine several times today!! It's fun to say the least!! Good luck getting an avatar. Do let me know if you want any help uploading it - if it will stay!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Now that is weird your post has now appeared with a green eyed monster again. It wasn't there when I just posted. I do have my contact lenses in all two of my eyes as well. Guess I will just have to go on my own then. I am just going out, I may be a while................................... but I will return with an avatar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Don't worry, you're not imagining it Kooringa. It did disappear but I've got it back again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Me and Kate are having problems with our avatars. Wouldnt be surprised if I turned into a wibbly wobbly monster too (already got the wibbly wobbly bit down to a fine art ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
