changing picture?
« on: May 27, 2008, 18:32:40 pm »
Hi, I was just wondering how I can change my display picture. I 'm having trouble figuring it out. I'm sure it's very simple and i'm just looking over something. Thanks for your help...Jill ;D

Hiya :)

If you click on 'profile', then select forum profile information (or something similar) you will see the option for your display picture.  You then click on 'i have my own pic', and 'browse' to select it from your PC

Look forward to seeing the new one.  Although the one you have now is gorgeous!

I haven't been able to do this either!!!!!!!  I do what you said to do, then I choose the pic I want, but can't get it to appear in the box! When I click on "open", it all goes away!!!  Grrrrrrrrrrr...............

Nothing. I keep trying, but I don't know why it's not working! I click on the "I have my own photo", then I click "browse", I find the pic I want to use, bit I cannot get it to appear in the box!!!! Poor Amelia...looks like her 8 month old pic will be here for a while longer!!!  >:(

It must be that your pic is too big . If you post the pic you want I can try resizing it for you
