Thanks to Kevin, I now have an avatar. I managed to get 3/4 of the way, and Kevin completed this very frustrating task.

I want to take a moment, Kevin, and thank you for all you do for us on these boards. I'm putting this post here, instead of e-mailing you, as I want the others to know (as if they didn't already) what a great guy you are. You help us in so many ways.

Thank you.

Marlene

I agree, Mar. Kevin's a great guy. Just look at what he's done for all of us by devising and implementing this site. I honestly believe he's helped save my life and what little sanity I have left.

Can someone help me to change my avatar? I tried it with a personal pic, used http://www.imageshack.us/index.php, but they keep telling me this : The URL of the remote avatar is not valid...

Sorry, I'm not handy when it comes down to computers... Embarassed

peggy,

the short answer is that the url you quote above (http://www.imageshack.us/index.php) does not end in ".gif" or ".jpg", so the bulletin board software does not recognize it as an image (the url you quote ends in ".php", which is a script - and even though the script may fetch an image, it in itself is not an image).

what you want is something like the url for the image you posted on the "how to post images" thread:

Code:
[img]http://img465.imageshack.us/img465/9083/kopievanscannen00223zg.jpg[/img]


the long answer is here (in the "how to post images" thread):

Marlene,

Kevin is a gem, and my life is one of the ones he saved, but .....I'm just seeing red X tonight, no avatar! Sorry. Can you see it? Maybe it's my computer.
