You can add an avatar of your own free will. (look at mine). Just choose the "upload an Avatar" option in the profile editing.

Any detailed instructions for a newbe avatar user?

You can't untick an option, it's either or. That is, if you choose one, it will swich from the other.

You should be able to switch between 'choose standard avatar' and 'upload avatar', then klick on the text itself to get the browse catalogue window...

Status: offline 		Sorry guys but maybe I'm dumb . In the avatar section there is only an option "click to choose avatar" and it links with the gallery of standard avatars. There is no option "upload avatar" unless you talk about "set up profile photo".

Status: offline 		Eh, thanks. Made it yesterday.

The old face got crushed along with the database so I'm using this one until I can find a new source to make a new 'look-alike'. I wanna use the opportunity for these HUGE avatars we can have now, too.

edit: Regarding slyone; Bah. Along comes Erik with his knowledge.

I noticed that many sig images weren't being displayed...mine included! When I changed the bracketed 'img' to lower case the picture appeared.

Picky, picky....you know what I meant!

I've seen this on other forums, and the admins were able to amend it.
AFAIK its due to LINUX being case sensitive.

Status: offline 		Hmm I am running out of randam variables to fiddle with in my case.

Lets see, I am properly ranked in with the Legion of Honour roll.
Although I would rather like my job title of "Turn based nuisance CEO" back if anyone can assist there :)

I have a listed sum of posts well exceeding 3000 (which is more than 50 I think :) ).

My join date is in order.

But I have used up all the buttons and methodologies in the Profiles portion of my control panel and i still don't have a pic of Les the Sarge 9-1 (and I hate all the underscores intensely Shaun hehe, but I can live with it).

I have the pic successfully stored in a post inside my image stash thread here.
http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/2110/Sq474789411.jpg
So if anyone in management can just edit my details to put the durned thing in as my avatar I would have no problem there.

Makes a lousy image for profile image though, pixelated to hell.
I am even including the blast image here.
