Hello Mark (grovel, grovel)

Would it be at all possible to add one more image, or would that be taking the mickey?

It's only a little one...

I have gave myself a sore head as I have been sat in front of computer for hours trying to create avatar. I found a really nice picture of betty boop in a hula costume and have followed all the instructions but keep getting red cross. Is it because the picture is too big??

The url is wrong that's probably why.

You have INVALID URL listed.

Copy and paste the correct url into here and Mark will host it for you.

Have replied to your pm Joolz but basically the url is the address of the picture you are requesting.

Go to the page with the avator on and copy from the address bar. Paste it into here. Mind you Mark is good and will probably be able to decipher the address from the url I have given further up. :lol:

Whoops!!!! Dont know what happened here, one minute it was an url address, next it was the picture I have spent about 10 hours trying to get as my avator (note that the dreaded "red cross" is still there)

Sorry to "rabbit" on about this avatar but can you tell me why mine doesn't show up unless I am logged on? Thanks

Pippy

I don't think any avatars are displayed unless the user is logged in...............are they?

joolz

Good question!!!!!! But if you look at old postings those with avatars are visible. ??? if they are logged on to same forum at the current time. Can someone please log off and check to see if their avator disappears like mine???! Thanks so much
