To change your CUSTOM AVATAR (which is your picture):

Click on the USER CP located at the top of page.

Then click on the Edit Avatar link located on the LEFT side of page Under the SETTINGS & OPTIONS box.

Scroll down the page past the cartoon avatars and you will see CUSTOM AVATARS.

In the box that says CUSTOM AVATARS FROM YOUR COMPUTER click on the browse box and find the pic you want to use for your new Avatar.

Then click SAVE CHANGES.

To add your SIGNATURE:

Click on the USER CP located at the top of page.

Then click on the Edit Signature link located on the LEFT side of page Under the SETTINGS & OPTIONS box.

A box will pop up and there you can change the font, color, bold, italics, etc of your Signature.

Then click SAVE CHANGES.

Hope this helps. If you don't see the Custom Avatar option then let me know.

Okey dokey Marie, I will try to get in touch with Alex again and let him know there are still some people that don't have this option.

thanks so much, as you can see, i now have my face in lights...... talk to you soon.

Wow, I just went to try to change my avatar and discovered that I don't see that "custom avatar" either. How is that possible? Penni, did Alex ever respond to you on this question? Thanks!

It's not there for me. There's nothing below all the standard avatars except the footer stuff. Weird!!

Alex: I have not heard from him yet. He sometimes doesn't respond but just fixes the problem. If I don't hear from him pretty soon I will resend the email. Too weird that some have the option and others don't.

You're a moderator and I had to edit the moderator profile to allow this option.

See I answered!! :)
