Help!

Post by GroundSwell »

Ok- I swear I'm pretty swift with the computer and all things internet, but I need some help here :-?

I wanted to spice up my profile a bit and add a picture, but everytime I try you end up seeing my mug larger than life! I really don't want to subject anyone to that. I went to photobucket and resized a picture for avatar,which I hadn't heard of before, but thought I could find and figure out. Guess not :)

After I fooled around now it says I'm nibblin on sponge cake!! I'm actually a personal trainer and while i do have a chocolate weakness I don't even like spongecake!! How'd that get there!!

Can someone help a damsel in distress... he he he

Meka?

If you upload your picture you want to use to photobucket?

You can resize it to avatar size there...and in your Profile?

Use the "link to offsite avatar" option and use the URL link Photobucket provides......It's easy.....

If I figured it out? Anyone can do it! :wink: :lol: :lol:
