Title: Qustions about avatar photos and tags etc. plus a BIG "thank you"
Post by: GrannieAnnie on February 17, 2008, 11:35:17
How do you make an avatar our of a photo of your own, please?
What the max size etc.?

And what is the "flash" option (the tags shown above the smily faces) plus a description for each of those like the typewriter in that line-up?
Now that I finally learned how to post pictures I'm tryiing to get educated!

By the way, thank you for setting up this website. It is a wealth of information and I'm learning so much from the best  gardeners and gardening country in the world, I do believe.

One thing at a time, GA.
 Go to your 'Forum Profile Information'...if you don't know how, just click your name on here, that will take you to the right page. On the left you will find FPI in the menu.
 Click on that to get into it.
 In there is the option to download your own pic as an avator. Click that option and brows for what you want in 'My Pics'.
 Make sure the pic is'nt in mega bites. Resize as you would for A4A inclusion.
 Come back or PM for info if you get stuck.
Ken.

The way Dan has set the site up the flash button will not do much if you insert a link for a macromedia flash movie it will just be displayed as a link. If it had been set up differently then it would of allowed you to embed a flash movie in your post.
There is a reference guide to the various buttons in the sites help section.

  Ahh, thank you, but it is all fakery you know- the distance shots don't show all my perennial weeds, poor soil, lumpy ground, slippery footing,tipsy walls, a huge pile of dirt I call a berm but it is really just a huge pile of dirt, unpruned shrubs gone wild, a gravel path wrecked  ::)  There is a two-page list of  NOT-Fun garden jobs on our refrigerator waiting to be tackled or any more pictures from me will be a total embarrassment. :-[
