I'm using Camino (latest version) on Mac OS X (latest version). I'm unable to find a command in personal preferences to add picture-awatar to my profile. Can you help me? I did look into general Help pages, I still see no x where I should see it...Thank you for your attention.

You should be careful not to call a man he/she.
Men have died for that.
Seriously tho'....I consider it quite rude. If I was Zorro I might carve a Z somewhere on you.
Anyway...
Thanks again, sir. There is someone else using the tiger avatar & some people might get us confused.

I apologize for the unintended rudeness, Terr. I was a bit hurried and did not take the time to check your profile...

Your comment reminds me of a "catch-phrase" from the Minnesota Renaissance Festival: "Never call a Lady a wench, because she will slap you -- and never call a Wench a lady, because she will slap you!" It pays to know the difference.

Anyhoo, glad to be of some help, meager as it was.

Greetings, agquarx;

I replied to "Terr" first, as he/she had a question which I could readily answer -- and I hope that my answer is of use to you, also. And welcome to the Community!

Greetings, Terr;

First, I'm not with Quinlan Road or their server, Eve, but I would like to help if I can. Click on your own name to open your "Member profile" box; over in the upper right corner you should see a link labeled "View/Edit Complete Profile", click on it. Scrolo down to where it says "Public Profile Fields"; next to the picture of your avatar ("Avatar/Picture URL"), click the link labeled "edit". Look up at the top of the "Avatar Selection" box: click the link labeled "Custom Avatar" (immediately above the pictures, on the left); this will lead to a "browse" option -- you can upload a picture from your own computer or from another website, all you need to do is provide the URL for the picture (mine is from my own computer, so of course the URL begins with "My Computer". The actual URL of YOUR picture might be different). Important: If you wish to upload a picture from your computer, be sure to click "Upload Custom Avatar", NOT "URL for your Custom Avatar". When you have chosen your avatar picture, make sure it is 48 X 48 pixels in size or it will be distorted when it is posted -- I cropped mine to the required size using a photo-shop program. If you like your selection, just click "Select this One". I think you know how to do the rest of it.

For my signature, I have never really trusted any forum site to include it -- so I "Copy/Paste" it from a text file I have.

I wish you luck, and hope you enjoy!
