Newbie: Wants To Work The Merch Table

Firstly - apologies for posting this here - not sure where else it can go.

Is there any way of putting our own avatars on our profiles - it appears we are limited to the ones in the groupee gallery.

Cheers

If you click on Go (which you will find at the left hand top corner of the thread here - not right at the top of the page though - then click 'myspace' then 'profile' then 'edit profile' then find the selection for avatar it will bring up a pop up window with loads of pics in that you can choose from.

Thanks, Bats, very helpful information. It's going to take me some time to get used to this new stuff. I had just gotten the hang of the other one...

No probs - nice picture by the way.

Best thing to do is just to have a play around with the different buttons and see what they do - best way to learn really.

Yeah, I've got a lot of poking around to do.

Does anyone know how to stop the pop-up for the media player from coming up every time I switch screens? This computer here doesn't have sound, so it's useless to me really. Isn't there a way to just get rid of it??

I was just poking around in there and while I was looking at the pics in the gallery I saw a link at the top of the page to add an avatar url. Now I got a personal one! 48X48 is so tiny!

Lily, you need to go into edit your profile and get the gallery of pictures up. At the top of the pictures there is 'Custom Avatar' option - click on that and put in the url of the piccy you want as your avatar.

Hope that helps.

Do you have photo editing software? If you do, resize the picture you want to use to 48X48 pixels. I suggest cropping it to exactly what you want first because that is really small. Then put the photo on the web. There are plenty of free sites you can use, I use photo bucket (www.photobucket.com). When you go into the avitar gallery, click the link at the top of the page and put in the url (the address for the webpage) of the photo you want to use.

I hope that helps!

if your image is bigger than 48x48 then it shrinks it to the right size automatically it seems....
