On the home page there will be a box top right, saying "Welcome jackiegear".

Click on your name and it will take you to your "user control panel", one of the links on the left hand side is Edit Avatar. The "browse" button is at the bottom, just below "Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer"

Edited to add: Just realised that the box in the top right hand corner appears on all the pages.

User Control Panel then, from left-hand panel, Edit ProfilePicture.

Plese note the limits, it has to be less than 97.7Kb.

I do apologise, the other forums I'm on use the same pic for profile and avatar, it had not registered that the two were different on here.

I did send her to less than 10mm of the right link, but I will try and be more accurate in future!

need photo help too!

Hi everyone,

I was able to upload my picture to my profile page, but it isn't showing up next to my name on any of the postings I've left. What do I need to do?

NEVERMIND... as you can see, I figured out the whole avatar bit! Thanks anyway for the thread, JG.
