Avatars and Signatures

**sprayandpray** · May 18th, 2008, 07:33 AM

I would like to suggest that someone let us in on how to add avatars and images to our signatures, or is this just for the select few?

Here... Here! I agree! How did y'all get those avatars on there? Mine is greyed out and won't let me add one.

I am uploading avatars now. Those who have avatars have uploaded them from off site. Signatures can be added in your user control panel... or User CP at the top left of the forum.

If you are having problems or just cannot do it... It is not my doing. Let me know and I will see what the problem is.

It took me a little while to get the avatar and signature pictures to work. It is like the old format where you have maximum pixel and size restraints. If you don't have your picture under these restraints it won't let anything work.

I found that photobuckets edit software works best for finding the exact size of your pictures.

I'll increase the size so most avatars will work

I still cant load a custom avatar....it will only let me use the ones on the board or none at all.....

On mine I had the option to add from a url or upload from desktop the signature I added from photobucket

Same problem here - no option to use any avatars except from the list shown.

I got sidetracked. Drama on the homefront. I'm back at it again.

**TheCableVine** · May 18th, 2008, 10:43 PM

**locator_smbk** · May 18th, 2008, 10:46 PM

No dice steve.....still will only allow no avatar or the ones on the board...

Down at the bottom of the "edit avatars" page it should show a box called custom avatars... That will be below the website supplied avatars. Click the button that says "use custom avatar"
