Does anyone know how to do custom Avatars? Someone did the picture for me that is on there and I want to put an updated one but don't know how.
Thanks

Cyndi,

in the blue menu bar on top of any page, click "Go" --> "My Space" --> "Profile". Then click on the link "View/Edit Complete Profile" in the upper right. In the "Public Profile Fields" section under "Avatar / Picture URL" click "Edit". A small window will open. Click on "Custom Avatar" and enter the URL of your Avatar. Then click on "Update Avatar".

Okay I am really DUMB what is the URL? I want to take a picture that is stored in a program on my computer and change it with the one on there.
Thanks!

Cyndi,

the URL is the location of your picture on the internet. You will have to upload it to a web space of some kind before your can use it as an avatar. As an example, the URL of your current avatar is http://familymoses.net/images/2004/j...ays/avatar.jpg

If you don't know how to upload the picture, you can send me the picture by e-mail (r.fiebig@gmx.net) and I will take care of that.

Thanks I could probably work on it to figure it out but if you know how I will just send you the picture!

Thanks
Cyndi

Cyndi,

I have updated your avatar. However, it might take a couple of hours or so for the change to become visible.
