This is fantastic! I just wondered if the avatar option will be enabled at any point? Thanks for all the hard work anyway, brilliant!

Yeah, I would like that to be added too if at all possible. :mrgreen:

I'll take a look and see about the avatars.

I was on the side of caution when I set up the new board, I ran into some problems in my last attempt with lots of spammers, and I don't think anyone wants to come to a dean koontz board to see pamela anderson.

lol.

Wait, okay maybe some people do, but you know what I mean.

Alright, Avatars are up and running. I have a temporary book cover avatar myself as I was just testing.

Please let me know if anyone notices abuse of this feature.

I'm sure no one will abuse this feature, I'll have to have a play around later and see what I can come up with.

Well, my avatar is up and running, what does everyone think? I think it's best that we have to upload our own, makes it more interesting. Hopefully we'll have a wild variety to look at as we all get our own.

I like it & I am a little jealous as you know how un-computer-y I am & have limited home of getting an avatar in the near future or EVER. I MAY require some assistance

. It's terrific. I noticed it right away.

Well, if you continue to struggle, I'm sure Johnny will explain it in layman's terms. He's pretty good at the computer stuff huh?

Did mine. Just did an old pic of me to see if it worked! If you struggle uploading one go to here http://www.resizepic.com/ choose your pic, put 90 and 90 in the boxes for the size and upload. Then when you pick your avvie make sure it the 90 by 90 one and it will be here. Easiest site Ive used for resizing pics.

Thanks for the resizing site, Jenny. I couldn't find the picture I wanted in that size!

Looks like a great user friendly site except......

I got this message:
Error: Sorry we can only accept jpg, gif or png image formats.

HELP! please

Hey Girlie,

what kind of image did you try to upload? The restriction is a security thing, let me know what kind of image it is, and if we can't get it so you can upload it, email it to me and I'll change the file type.

koontzmaster is the email, at this domain, koontzmania.com.

No worries Leon. Its the easiest one I have found to use. Cool car too!

girlie · **Posted:** Mon Aug 25, 2008 9:37 am

Thanks Koontzmaster. I will as soon as I get home. I tried to change the file type but I am not very computer literate so I was not successful.

Thanks Jenny. It's a Lamborghini Reventón. I made a post about it on the aceboards forum but no one ever replied lol.
