Placid Report post Posted June 30, 2006 Click the 'My Controls' link at the top right then go to the 'Efit Avatar' section (Link on the left menu that appears). You have to upload your desired avatar to services such as photobucket or http://imageshack.us. Once you've uploaded to the photo services, paste the link they give you in the Avatar settings page in "Enter a URL to an online avatar image" box. And, voila!

The_Piper Report post Posted June 30, 2006 You store the picture you want to use as an avatar somewhere, like photobucket.com, then specify the URL to that picture in your forum profile, avatar settings. Please read forum rules to find out which pics are acceptable as avatars, depending on style, size and so on. Piper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LabRat Report post Posted September 16, 2006 (edited) This image has been moved or deleted :\ and your siggy is too big (too tall and too large a filesize) http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=13949 rule #25 I just tested - the link can be put as an image inline.

LabRat Report post Posted September 16, 2006 (edited) Ah now I see your problems: the avatar is too big (irrelevant but still..) the text entry field in your controls won't allow a line that long - bingo we have a winner.. ok I will set up a tinyurl for your image, back in a sec. http://tinyurl.com/omttv/thEdwardShocked.gif Edited September 16, 2006 by LabRat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
