Hello everyone.

This is my second post. So far, I have found this forum to be most helpful and informative in my budding ESL career.

But...

There is something here that annoys me. Confused

How can I post my avatar? Seriously. Why do I have trouble posting an avatar next to my username. An avatar would add flair and color to an otherwise dull-looking posting. Many other forums (like Syfy) allow you to easily and immediately post an avatar.

I don't think this question has been fully or satisfactorily answered.

Or is this problem already being remedied?

You only have two posts and that's why you can't post an avatar. You have to have 100 posts before you will be able to have an avatar. After you post the 100th, you will then be able to go to your profile page, scroll down to the very bottom and you will see a place where you'll be able to put the avatar.
I go to photobucket.com, register, select an avatar I want, copy the address and then put that address in the avatar box at the bottom of the profile page and hit submit. You will then have your beautiful avatar. Remember, you will not see the place for the avatar address until you have posted 100.

Finally got around to adding an avatar.

But I also wanted a signature (upgrading 2011). Does it work? hmmm. no

Goofed up??

And there was me thinking this was a piece of contemporary art examining and challenging notions of identity (the domesticated dog) with the subtle (yet still astonishingly in-your-face) out of focus feature as a metaphor for the modern sense of human displacement and unease.

Oh, well!

too much credit Embarassed

And don't try the 'd' word with this canine - he's entirely small wolf in terms of function

Thanks for the info, guys.

Just curious...

Will I be able to post an animated avatar upon reaching 100?

That would be so cool! Mr. Green

Animated avatars are no problem. They just can't be too big.
