Now that Dirk has turned on avatars, lets get creative and put pics of our cars, or yourself, or whatever (please be tasteful) below our names. Not really a contest as per say, but more an attempt to get pics out of sigs.

 

How do I do it?

 

If you go to the user control panel, go to edit options, and click on change avatar at the bottom of the page. In there you can specify a custom avatar if you have more than 50 posts. You need to create a 64x64 pixel or smaller image (I imagine either JPG or GIF, I used JPG) before doing this. I tried using the browse function to upload my image directly, but it wouldn't work for me, so I downloaded the image to my server and entered the address in the appropriate box.

 

Hope this works...

 

Is mine showing up?

 

Click on more info to view the pre-created ones that Dirk downloaded. You can select one of those if you prefer, and that is your only option if you have less than 50 posts.

 

I already have the best Avatar.

 

Looks like the right time for me to try mine out... hope it works

Hey Un4givin, considering your username, don't you think that you should have made your self portrait a little more menacing??? Just kidding, actually its real cool!
