Re:Adding a photo to your name

[Lynnie046]

I was trying to figure out how to add a photo or pic to my name
can you add something that is stored in your computer or do you have to
get it from a url ??? or pick from the selection that this site gives you
thanks for any help

my understanding is that if you want to use a picture of your own you have to get it from a URL, not from something stored in your computer. they also have a variety of icons to pic from in your profile section.
but if you wanna use your own, this is what i did: i went to angelfire.com, registered for a website, sized up my picture from my computer and uploaded it on to my angelfire website and put the URL in the proper place in my profile.

Did you have a chance to read through AuggieSociety's directions? They're good.

In "Your Account" @ the top of this page, you can find either a site icon to use (there are many to choose from), or you will find a box where you enter the "http://..." address of a picture on the Web.

Have you seen a picture on the Web that you like? You can right click on it, select "properties" & copy the address, pasting it into the box in the "Your Account" section. It's somewhat unreliable though (bandwidth issues, deletion by the owner, etc).

The best way to go is to do what Auggie suggested. If you have saved a photo to your computer, register w/ a site like:
http://www.angelfire.com
where you can send the picture there, copy the address it is saved to & then use it here in that little box I was telling you about.

The explanation is honestly more difficult than the action, LOL.

Good luck! :)
