Is it possible to upload an avatar from the C drive of a PC?

Hi,
Sorry, the forum itself does not "house" any images... so no uploads.

However, if you read the thread about posting pics in general, you will see how you can upload to various photo hosting services, such as photobucket.com, or others.... and then link to that site to post your avatar.

Or, if you don't want to mess with any of that, you can always just email your photo to me, and I will place it on the vintagescubasupply server and insert it into your profile for you.

Just let me know if youd like me to do that, or if you need any other help.

Thanks for joining us!

How to add your own avatar.

First, make sure that you're logged-in. At the top of the screen (in the Vintage Scuba Supply Community Forum title box) is a tool bar. Click on the word "profile". (Or you can click this link: vintagescuba.proboards2.com/index.cgi?action=viewprofile)

When your profile screen opens you will see the following line at the top of your profile: Member's Bio - [blue]Modify Profile - Bookmarks[/blue]. Click on "Modify Profile". This will take you to the page where you can add your own avatar. Remember, in order to use your own custom avatar, you must enter the full http:// URL (i.e. where your avatar is hosted) in the Avatar URL box. You can specify your own custom width and height for your avatar. However, avatars must be no more than 100x100 pixels.

If all else fails remember that you can contact Linda.

Hope that this helps!
