Ok, boys and girls.. hopefully this little reminder of the board and PHJim's rules will help many of us.. :) :-? PLEASE!!!! Right click over your avatar... go to properties... and check the dimensions. If it's more than 140 x 140 ? The pic you've chosen needs to be resized. Or you need to chose a thumbnail size, rather than a full size pic. Purty please??? Those of us with small monitors or laptops? It makes us have to scroll to the right just to read the posts. :( :(

THANKS VERY MUCH!!!
:D :D

2. Click on "Profile" near the top of the page

3. Near the bottom of the Profile page find the "Avatar control panel" section. In the field "Link to off-site Avatar:" , enter the URL address of the picture you want to link to. You should include the name of the gif or jpg file. Your avatar size should not exceed 140 x 140 pixels.
Example:
http://www.buffettfan.net/albums/misc/JoAni.gif
Just a kind reminder to our "Newbie" friends to the site.. if your avatar is too big?? It makes people have to scroll to the right in order to read the posts. :( :(

THANKS!!!!!! :D :D :D

OK Penny, I think everything is in order now.

Thanks for the reminder. Let me know if LADYPARROTHEAD's is too big and I'll fix it too. since I created her license plate, I'll be the one that has to make it smaller. OH! That's part of her signature. DOES THAT MATTER?

Thank you, Bill!! :D That sure helps a lot of pholks be able to read the posts! :D

Size doesn't matter, silly. ;) Ohhhh, you mean the sig line? ;) :D
While you don't want to take up an entire page, the sig line pics are really limited in size like the avatar's are. :D

What I think you monitors should have is a 'mass emailing to all' feature when this comes about. :-?

True, there are many who still have avatars that are far beyond 140 x 140 that cause me to scroll left in threads to be able to read all of the text in posts. I have asked a few people very nicely in threads to resize their avatars but I guess they didn't read my posts (or this thread!).
