Hi everyone!
For those of you who have 100 or more posts at this board and are using an avatar from our gallery, I have modified your profiles with the new url so your avatars will work. Since there are 300+ members at this board and I'm on dialup, it would be too timestaking to go through each and every profile to catch everybody.
I am still in the process of redoing the avatar gallery. Even when it's done, you will find that there's a bug with the upgrade that won't allow you to see the preview before you save the changes. When I am finished replacing the gallery urls, I will see what I can do to work around that.
When you go in to modify your profile, you will find that the screen is stretched out. That problem will be rectified after I take all the old gallery urls out. I want to leave them in for a while, though, in case I need to help people find their replacement.

Here is the page it's on:
groups.msn.com/Whoosh/personalphotos.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=685
My "Not Long" url is working in my avatar for now... don't know about the tiny url. You can try it and see, and if it doesn't work, the image will have to be stored somewhere else. Le is using PhotoBucket.com with the forums images.

If you click on this link, you will see the ones that have been re-added to the gallery so far. You can either choose the url from the dropbox when you edit your profile, or paste the url in directly. The 2nd way may be easier at this point, especially with all the long urls still in there causing the side-to-side scroll. I will fix that eventually though. To get the url of an image from the above link, right-click on it and choose "properties". You can then highlight and copy (ctrl+C) the url from the box that pops up. For the record, most of the perfectly square avatars are 96x96 pixels, and that will also show up on the "properties" popup.

Yes, mysweetie got us all fixed up.....I think she has the makings & potential of being a great moderator...what do you two think?? Can she actually apply for something like that if she were interested....or how does it work?? My avatar looks all washed out like the contrast is not right....in a month or so when things start calming down, would you try looking at that for me?? No rush.....

Well, Mary has my pic saved to her computer, so she was able to work on the contrast for me...looks like it's a photobucket thing....any way to make it better??
I still think she would make a great mod & would like to nominate her or put a bug in someone's ear, or whatever it takes to start those wheels turning.....seriously, I think she would be interested......

Hi FX! Somehow you got registered twice and were using your other account before the upgrade. Login ID's used to be case-sensitive, and since both accounts were the same otherwise, the account you were using previously was appended with a "2" at the end. I can combine your post counts for whichever account you want to use. I'm guessing you want to use the one without the 2 so you'll have less to type to log in?

You're welcome, FX. Would you like me to combine both of your post counts over to the account you're posting with now?

Sorry about that. I haven't had the time to grab all those urls, and I don't forsee having the time within the next few days either.

I haven't either... I've thought about going through the profiles and checking them, but I've been distracted.

Help? Again? Please?
So I found a picture I'd like to use for an avatar, but have no idea how to go about doing it. I don't want to do that hot-link thing - not that I know how, but playing around, I might do it inadvertently.

You can post a link to it here... or if you have it saved on your computer you can upload it to an online photo album, such as Photobucket.com for one. You can also upload it at our MSN Group.
