Hi There...For some reason, the image I have as my profile picture only shows up on my Profile. If I post or reply to someone, I get the generic image. Can someone tell me why? I'd appreciate your input! Many thanks.

Blessings!

That is how it is supposed to work.

Are you trying to enter an avatar picture perhaps? If so go to settings and options and click on 'edit avatar'.

Does this help?

Ummmm, this will sound really dumb, but coming from a newbie, maybe not. What is an avatar? Thanks....and please don't laugh too hard!

Dahhhh, silly me! It's right there in plain sight. I looked at it when I posted my Profile pic, but thought an Avatar was something way different. I have learned something else here today. My brain is going to bust! Thanks again. Sorry I didn't understand.

Blessings!

My avatar is the model horse below my name. Psychcentral has a lot of avatar pictures that you look through and select one for your avatar if you find one you like. Or you can upload a picture from your hard drive if you choose. The hardest part about choosing one from your hard drive is finding one that fits the small size or resizing it to fit.

And no, there is no such thing as a dumb question - those are just easier to answer

If you have not already read the FAQ you might want to do so http://forums.psychcentral.com/faq.php

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
