hmmmmm I was confused/frustrated enough to begin with:
You're tellin' me that when I go "off", my truck goes with me? I won't have a way to verify that, since when I'm "on" my truck is there... Here's what I did, though, so tell me where I skru'd the pooch.....
That's a digital that I had stored out at
www.PhotoCountry.com
it was too "big" pixel-wise to fit in the 50x50 allotted for these "avatars", so I copied it to "paint" here on the computer (a local file, not "online")
There, I rasseled around with it until it was small enough not to reject when I'd shoot it to my "profile"----judging from the big white outline, I may have overdone the shrinkage, and now I can't remember how to un-do that... . "so simple a child can operate it!", indeed! MY CHILD'S BUSY, DAMMIT! needs to be so simple a dad can operate it..... nuffathat!
I used the "uplink" choice, not the
www. choice when I submitted it.
I was "off" all day yesterday (8Jun2K1), and the truck was gone, too? ---if i was a real cyberwhiz, i could probably make it do a sound file that goes, *cumminsclatter in background* accompanied by a voice that says "rich is here"

--but i'm not, so you don't have to worry about that.
