I'm so exited as I near the required number of posts to get chance to upload an avatar, so can any of you old hands direct me to some instructions on the file size etc that works?

 

Many thanks

I think it needs to be 100 x 100 pixels or smaller.

Mine is 100 x 96

........and 5000 bytes max.

 

We're waiting!!! ......................

Yeah, the 5Kb bit caught me out James!

 

Pretty much means it has to be a gif rather than a jpeg, so here is my first attempt.

 

In truth I haven't really taken many shots of the car yet, so I may improve this later.

 

At least it will do for now, and I don't think anyone else has used this angle yet?????

 

 

:p

James you gona wait for a while yet mate;)

 

Its Black it is the slowest colour BWAHAHAHAHA;)

:D

 

in this case it's all about operator error!

 

(I had to go and pick my mrs up from the eye hospital! - and I took her laguna diesel into Manchester city centre to do it - result, slight delay in the more important issue of reducing the size of my photo file!!!

 

:(

Incidentally, Mac, I notice you manage to put photos in as your signature too. How is this done,

 

signed, lazy git who can't be bothered to work it out for himself!:D

You need to host the picture on the net first,then go to edit profile and paste the link in your sig box;)

 

Then put [ img] your picture here [ /img] ;)

Host the picture on the net, you mean any site with a url?, so the img tabs are an http link?

You got it! If its a pic of your car you could upload onto RIDES and then take it from there!
