Hi there!

Firstly login to the site.

Once you're logged in, your user name - Bleachershane - should appear at the top right of the page (alongside the picture of our latest cover).

Below that is a 'My Account' link - click on that, then the Forums Settings tab, and you'll find Bio, Sig and Avatar options. 

Let us know if you have any problems!

Hi Clare,


I too am having avatar issues.


I originally put up a 650 x 480  - 128kbs (approx) file thinking the server would resize it. When it didn't appear I made another at 100 x 68 pixels. This hasn't appeared either.


What are the parameters and what if anything am I doing wrong?

Again, avatars are problematic, still - though I am told a fix is imminent. Ish.

In the meantime please email to us at this address, with username avatar as the subject, and when I get a mo I will endeavour to upload them from here.

What, other than not having paid attention for the best part of 3 years?

 I'm an occassional visitor at best. Around for a couple of days then away for weeks or months. Just depends on how much time I spend on other forums as to whether or not I come here so I can miss a lot between visits. Smile
