I uploaded a picture for my "member" photo and a couple of days later I sent an email to admin. asking if it was in proper form and was advised that it would be up shortly. I uploaded the same picture a couple of days ago with a smaller footprint and still haven't seen the picture added to the slot. I wondered if I was sending it to the wrong place or there is some confusion about where it belonged. TIA

it's up. the home page pics rotate every time you go to the home page.

were you trying to put a pic in your avatar, and not the home page?

Search for Avatar (computing) at Wikipedia. Everything you ever wanted to know about the word. It appears the hindus came up with it. Who knew?

no worries. we allow members to put pics in both places. this allows them to have one pic in their avatar, and a different one if they want to on the home page.

"Avatar" hmmm I suppose we all have our fantasies... considering the emblem is a horse, I suppose I consider mine a chariot... as in "your chariot awaits you master John..." :glare:
