Customize your profile

[Dave Schultz]

Up in the top NavBar -- between admin and logout -- is the PROFILE link.

Click that to add your avatar, signature, and other information that will give your posts some personality.

On the avatar, you will need to have it hosted somewhere -- however, if you have an avatar on another board -- its hosted. Right-click that avatar, scroll down to VIEW IMAGE INFO, double-click file name and press Ctrl +C to copy the file name, and then paste it (Ctrl +V) in the field for the Avatar URL. Note the image size (needs to be less than 100X100) and enter that information. It sounds complicated -- but it is not. Give it a try and you'll be amazed at what you learn through trying.

Fill out other profile information which might better identify you to the people who might know you by name of car -- but not the handle you chose on this board.

You will have to enter your password to complete the changes.

Let's see who has the cahones to try to update their profile.

It would be nice if more members would add their location to their profile. It would clear up a lot of confusion with people knowing the area of the country the person they're communicating with are from.

Not sure what you mean by "have to have it hosted somewhere"? Maybe my 10 yearold grandson can figure this out for me..

you can load your photos to Facebook or literally dozens of photo hosting sites like Picasso or photobucket. They host the photo because it is saved on their servers and then can be displayed on other sites like this one.
