Thanks, John.

Lawrence or Bubba should be along now any minute to answer your question.

Aha ... this could do with some clarification in an announcement somewhere when you create your account.

Help! I uploaded my avatar OK, but can't crop it so that it fits in the thumbnail sketch. How do I reduce the thing to get it to fit thumbnails?

 

[oldmooner]

Yeah Bob! As you can see it worked. Not pretty, but OK for an old guy. Thanx.

 

[thayan]

Thanks to you

Heck I've been struggling with just figuring out how to post let alone have a picture attached lol have to get my six year old to help with the Avatar

Now the question is why my avatar shows up sideways. Its saved on my computer and my photobucket right side up... :crazy:

 

[checotah]

When I try to upload an avatar, it appears with a "crop avatar" requirement and a crop box centered in the picture. When I click on the picture anywhere, including into the crop box, the box moves immediately to the lower right of the picture and cannot be moved or resized. Any help?

Bob, Thanks for the Avitar advice!

 

[jaywellington]

I have a spiffy new avatar but when I post I still get the smoking man with the question mark on his head. How to I get my new avatar to work?

 

[stonewall]

Crop feature isn't working properly for me.

 

[coreyr]

I have been unable to get the "crop" feature to work on mine either. Very irritating.

 

[coreyr]

Ok, maybe I ahve it working now.

Help! After selecting the jpg file I want, nothing happens when I press UPLOAD. I've tried resizing the file, moving it from a network drive to the hard drive, etc, etc, and nothing seems to work. Could there be some browser security setting that's preventing the upload?

 

[rockvillepete]

Never mind! I think it finally worked!

Ah jeeze! I was looking around and went into my blog admin where an option appeared to create an avatar. I was having the same issue there with nothing happening after selecting an image and pressing Upload so I stupidly pressed Use Identicon Instead or something to that effect. Now I'm stuck with it and can't change it to my avatar. Is there a way to change from using an Identicon to using an avatar in posts?
