Im having problems loading a picture as an avatar. Any advice? Thanx.

As long as you have the jpeg or gif in the right pixel size, just take that image, upload it onto a server that you are using (such as Tripod, like what I'm using) then copy the URL of where that image sits (i.e.: http://www.tripod.com/my_folder/my_jpeg) and paste that into the window as to where it says to make a custom avatar. Their server will pull that image onto their site, and your avatar will be seen.

Sounds cool?

Thanx Moman, Your cool!

Or link straight to the image that you find on a google search. Thats where mine comes from on my msn messenger image and the one on BnA comes from the site itself

I link to

Of course, people might get arsey that your linking to them without permission but that can be swopped real quick.

Just dont link to any big businesses!

It's all over my head. I don't know the first thing about a jpeg or gif, and don't know how to run a link, but thanks alot for taking the time to LEARN a dumbass like me!

I still cannot figure out how to load an elevator.

If you have someone help you it's pretty easy. Have them hold the door while you lift(bend at the knees) or push whatever it is you want to load into the elevator. Bet you didn't know that!

or even simpler, just step into it...



But seriously loading an avataar is tricky,I just gave it up

Seeing if i can load up an avatar and make it work!!

Has Time, Will Travel!

How come we can't just upload a pic from our own hard drive???
