I recently added an avatar to my profile which I expected to show up in my posts which it doesn't do. Any suggestions to correct this problem. The avatar does show up my profile so I don't think it's a size issue. Thanks in advance!

Your picture is set as your profile picture.
You need to set it as your avatar picture.

Cookie - what program do you use to get your pictures "small" enough to be used on your signature and avatar here?

Appreciate your time AND hand holding.:confused:

I use Windows Paint. Good for re-sizing, cropping and some other useful tools.
Right click on your picture then click "Open With", select "Paint".

Thanks for your help. How do you change (set) the picture from a profile to avatar picture? Is there something in my settings where this can be done?
I didn't change your profile picture, I copied it and set the same picture as your Avatar.
When you were wanting an avatar you must have selected "Profile Picture".
So now you have an avatar picture and a profile picture.
You can still add a signature picture and/or change your profile picture or avatar.
When you are logged in click on "Settings" at the top right of the page. Then on the left side under "Profile" you will see "Edit Profile Picture", Edit Avatar" and "Edit Signature".
Select the one you want to add to or edit.

Peace
Dave

Trace, guide them to post #8 of this thread. I think it should help them out. If not have them send me a PM.
They have an avatar, profile picture (the same) and a signature pic.
It can all be fixed.

Peace

I'm trying to do the same thing. I can't seem to upload an Avatar. There isn't an option when I click on update that I can see.
What steps are you taking to add an Avatar?
You need to click on "Settings" at the top right of this page. Then scroll a bit and on the left side under "My Settings" you will see "Edit (or Add) Avatar"
Check the "Custom Avatar" button then select option 1 or 2.
After you enter the URL or upload an image, click "Save Changes".

Peace
Dave
