Hey yall, just a quick question about the forum, how exactly do you set an avatar? I've tried figuring out a few times and it's got me beat.

Check the size of the avatar you are trying to set. The maximum size is 80 X 80.

Go to User CP in the upper left corner in the top green bar.

Go to Edit Avatar in the left hand menu under Settings and Options.

Click on Custom Avatar.

Either link to the picture you want as your avatar OR upload it.

I'm sure that there are several ways to resize a picture that you have on your computer - Rick turned me on to this program http://www.getpaint.net/download.html which is a free down load. So far it's what I've been using.

Remember it is not how big your Avatar is .....that matters, it's your avatar's hat that matters.........:):):)

I'm just picturing Hopeak trading in his cowboy hat for the Christmas hat with elf ears. Gets the neighbors talking at the Sunday morning breakfast.

Another great and free program for editing pics is Faststone. Google and download. has a great feature where you can batch process a buncha(Tech term) pics and resize them at the same time.
