Vic,
Will we be able to upload or link to a custom avatar?


Thanks for all your hard work on the boards!

Yes its in your cp panel on the upper left. Its your profile control panel and you can pick from some or upload a custon one there. Just follow the directions. Edit profile/ signature etc... set your age right as well.

Vic, this question was asked in the Collector's Forum and apparently the general membership does not have the custom upload feature that Administrators and Moderators are seeing.

 

[Vic]

well that may be a problem....

There must be some sort of "COPPA Interlock"; I can't reset my age without "parental permission", and I don't even have the option of a custom avatar - probably because I might put up something Mom wouldn't like.

Not complaining, mind you - it is still "Day One".

I'm not seeing the option, but what the heck it's only a minor issue that's not a biggie

Not a biggie - but something that would be neat to be able to do (use my avatar). I figure the settings will get updated eventually - I'm not into to big of a rush.

I hope we get to use our own avatar in the near future, but I'm more worried about the "Parental Permission" part right now.

BTW - Did anyone else have to reset their password to log in? And did everyone lose their ability to get into the GumpyOldMen and Minefield forums?

Everybody has to reset their password to get into this board. I understand that the names were carried over, but passwords were not. It was not a big deal in resetting it.

As to the two forums you mentioned, I do not think that they are open yet. Maybe those mods are taking a few days off.

A custom avatar option is not available in my user profile section of the user cp. Chuck

 

[nothernug]

I just got done rattling around there and find no way to enter a custom avatar either.
I expect that's just one of the bugs to iron out.

Nope. See my earlier reply in this thread with the enclosed screen capture of my "edit avatar" page. Like I stated in that thread, it's no big deal

Custom avatar option is out there now.

 

[cetracer]

Yep! It's working now.

Thank you to Vic & Tuco for solving the problem!

Agreed, thanks again for getting it solved.
