I tried to upload the avatar to my profile but nothing came up. I clicked on submit and there was no image anywhere to be found.
What am I doing wrong?
Can anyone please help?

Okay I figured out what the problem was. The image I wanted to use was .pnp file. I will settle for this one and see if I can change that image to a .jpg.

Like I said earlier, your avatar is very soothing to the eyes.
Avatars also don't get uploaded if they go beyond the permissible size set in the system.
| Quote: | | Avatars width can be no greater than 135 pixels, the height no greater than 100 pixels, and the file size no more than 17 KB. |
For the newbie, full instructions are given at

I thought of pushing up this thread for those who haven't put an avatar yet. Avatars make our identity beautiful and recognized.
A request to our regular members like Lorri, set4sail, pollyandsay, bossy, zek1000, celticlass_4, Jo to upload their avatars please. It gives a good impression about our community to the visitors.

Also when I try and look at the images on the edit profile section here, the pictures don't show---the show little boxes with red x's in them.

Do you get any error message after you try to upload it?? The error message can be hard to see, it will be towards the top of the screen - also, did you save the avatar to your computer? If so, right-click on it and see what the size is. It might be too big!! We will get that avatar up no matter what, it will just take some time!!

You know Mary I don't know if I loaded onto my computer. I just know that I clicked on create Avatar on my yahoo mail page and followed those directions. I did right click on it and I don't think anything happened, I will try it again. I did get an error message about 3 different times and it said 3 different things, cause I was trying a variety of methods. I'll try again--thanks for your assistance.

Let me PM you some avatar sites, since it seems you are not able to put your yahoo one here. You can find a great one!

Cool avatar, Lorri. celticlass avatar reminds me a very beautiful painting I saw sometime back. All of us have a good choice, indeed.
Bossy, it's your turn now..set4sail, zek1000, jo, hope you will look into this thread in your next visit.

Mary---I am just a teensy bit too old for Tinkerbell sheets, but I think I can use the avatar and people will just think I am a slightly wacko old lady. I liked Tink better than some of those scary looking avatars!!

LOL, nobody is too old for Tinkerbell sheets! 
There ARE some scary looking avatars. I am a huge fan of dragons and fairies, and believe me, I saw some freaky ones! As if mine isn't freaky....LOL!!
