Avatars turned back on

[Steve St.Laurent]

After careful consideration of input from users we have decided to turn avatars back on. We are however very aware of issues this may cause for dial up users and want you to keep in mind that if you do not like avatars you have the option of disabling them by pulling the discussion forums menu down to "user control panel" and then click on "edit options" and about halfway down you'll see the "thread display options" and in the first section in there you can uncheck the box that says "show avatars" and then click on "save changes" at the bottom of the screen.

Please keep in mind that the following has been added to the site guidelines as they relate to avatars:

Avatars: Custom avatars are allowed however keep in mind that:

1. Avatars must be suitable for general audiences in terms of sex, violence, and profanity. In other words, if it would be inappropriate for your mother or your child to view in a public forum, it will be deemed inappropriate.

2. Anything considered inappropriate by ny Moderator will be deleted and that TDR Member will not be able to post avatars ever again in the history of the website. No kidding.

This will be strictly enforced and there will be no right of appeal if you choose your avatar poorly so step carefully.

To upload an avatar pull down the discussion forums menu to "user control panel" and then click on edit avatar on the left side menu.

Avatars where are you??

Guys, I know I’m puter illiterate but?? I've clicked on just about everything on the left side:{

 

[Gary - K7GLD]

YUP - "Edit Avitar" doesn't show up as an option for me either...



And the one now displayed on my sig is an OLD one...

 

[Duluth Diesel]

No workie for me as well.

 

[JCasper]

Now worky here either.

 

[Steve St.Laurent]

Oops, it was a permissions issue. You should be able to see it now.

 

[TRLRTRSH]

Contrary to what my wife may think, I knew I was not THAT dumb!!



Thanks Steve!

 

[Grunt]

Thanks!! Works for me

 

[DCreed]

why do they only appear in the control panel?

 

[Steve St.Laurent]

You probably have the box collapsed on threads. Look under anyone's username on the left side of posts. You'll probably see a down arrow there - click on that and it will expand that box and it will stay expanded until you collapse it. If that doesn't do it then you have them turned off in your control panel - look at the instructions above and instead of turning them off, turn them on.

All's well here - except (and yeah, I understand WHY!) that the existing size limitation sure does eliminate LOTS of good potential material... :{



I REALLY wanted to use THIS one:
