Boy, Am I a Dummy !

Okay; Here’s the story. I have photos stored on Flikr and in a file on Firefox. Now, It seems I am definitely doing something wrong. I follow the instructions and can’t get anywhere.

I have to create a new Avatar and also I want to be able to post some pichures wit me Posts full of woids. Between having to re-register, Losing my camera some months back and a little else even the instructions aren’t much help.

I have to be doing something wrong. After losing my Avatar and doing the re-register I cannot seem to move anything for point blip to point blap. I just may give up with trying.

Besides I talk better than I take Pichures anyway. Kain’t spill it ryte inywoiy. T.B.

Hello TB!

I sure wonder how did you manage to lose your avatar! Did you try to change it?

How about letting us know your user id on flickr? I bet that if I knew that, I could post some of your photos on these forums myself.

Do you say you can’t upload any more photos on flickr now?

I sure do hope we can clear this up for you - good luck and have a nice day

Doc,

Sorry you had to re-register at FSM. At least your name is still Tanker Builder. FSM should be able to get you back to your old log-in though. Try’em.

I recall awhile back you had some help with posting your pictures from a member here. Try that source again for using the Flickr Hosting site. Alternately, young friends and family can be indispensible.

Your other issue:

I gather the Avatar you want to update is the one for FSM? If so…

Log onto FSM.

CLICK on your existing Avatar photo (It is currently a “default” image.)

Click EDIT AVATAR (under the Avatar Picture).

A small window called CHANGE AVATAR opens

Click BROWSE.

A new window opens. This will be your computer showing your files. You can now browse around your folders and files.

Find a photo for your Avatar, double click on it. (or just click OPEN.).

The CHANGE AVATAR window appears.

Click UPLOAD and USE IMAGE. ( Your new Avatar image appears)

That should do it BUT…

I do know of one instance where a member could not update their Avatar. Take a look here in case this is your issue.

In the mean time I have a PM coming your way.

Jim.

TB, you’re not alone. I am a complete “Comuter Idiot”. The book “Computers for Dummies” is TOTALLY over my head [8-)]. I still can’t post pics on here but thanks to one of our Forum friends I can post a link to the pics. Took me a while to learn how to get the pics off of my wifes phone too.[:$]
