hi Timmy , glad you like the avatar . many woofs to you for the new year! have fun , sue

hello!

sorry if i sound silly but me and my sister doen't know how to get an avatar,
and we would dearly like to.

so i was just wondering if anyone could help me to get an avatar?

thanks
Leila.

Here is how to do it Leila.

1. Select a picture stored on your PC OR select one from a website, right click on it and save it to your PC.
2. Sign into the society forums and go to User Control Panel
3. Click Profile
4. Click Edit Avatar
5. Click Browse
6. Find and click the picture saved on your PC then click Open
7. Picture should upload

If you get a warning saying it is too big (it can only be 100 pixels by 100 pixels)
1. Find the picture and click on it, it should tell you its pixel size/dimensions either at the bottom left of the open window (XP) or at the bottom of the window (Vista).
2. Crop image in Paint or in Windows Picture Manager (guesswork required to get right size) OR resize to 100x100 (or 100X90 etc) in Picture Manager (To open a picture in Picture Manager right click it and select Open With).
3. Upload picture.

Good Luck!
Apologies if I've simplified it too much for you!

hello again,

me and my sister has done it!
what do you think of our avatar?

this is kiki our Quaker parrot after having a bath,
thanks fiona for giving us that info!

Leila and Debbie.

Well done Leila and Debbie for getting your avatar up - its lovely. I didn't realise you actually had a parrot called Kiki! Does she like being bathed or is it a bit of a fight?

That's a great avatar, Leila and Debbie!

Love your new avatar.

How marvellous to have your very own Kiki! Does he/she talk?

thank you everyone!

<smile's round at everyone>
