Hope I can beat Bruce and Kuan to this one............. 8)

Just enter your Profile in the upper headings, then scroll to the bottom of the page. You have 3 choices for entering a avatar;

1st. Browse and find a thumbnail sized picture on your PC with max size of 100x100 pixel and 6 KB.

2nd. You can also copy a image link of your web photo for download to Delica.ca (max size applies here too).

Easiest. Link to a off site avatar. Just right click on your desired avatar picture, select 'Copy image location', then paste that into the link field. This is easy cause you don't need to edit that picture size, just pick a thumbnail image of your choosing.

Don't pick a avatar that is too huge or it drives the message side over too much. Mitch's is about as big as you want to go. And yes, I want to join the grey and black delica club with 31" tires soon, black Deli's won't be excluded ether.

Cheeky swine :lol: :lol:

How can I beat you when I'm asleep!

(but what is Kuan's excuse??

)

Nice instructions and hit the nail squarely on the head... :D

Josh & Mitch,

Fire me over a copy of what you want as an Avatar and I'll compress it down to the size that's best...them mail it back to you.

Send photos to my email (info @ metalmonkeys.co.uk)

I agree with Kevin, they need to be small...not only does it keep the 'User' column narrower (therefore message column wider), but it also means pages load up much quicker too.....

Get me the pics and I'll have you sorted in two shakes of a mozzie's a$$! 8) (-8hrs time difference! :lol: )

Regards,

Bruce.

Hmmm, I had Bruce do the work at switching the size of my pic so I could use it for an avatar... but alas, Mitch I am giving you a run for your money, I still cannot for the life of me upload it. Even with all the instructions. Sheesh.

VICTORY! I did it! I beat the blasted computer into submission!

I would like to thank BC Delica, and Bruce for making it all possible, you guys are the best. I also want to thank my mom... (Isnt that what you do? always thank your mom.) I never thought I would succeed. Thanks for believing in me everyone. And remember, if I can do it, anyone can (Mitch, its possible for us all!) Man this is an emotional moment.... sniffle... i'm getting all misty eyed here.

Oh, and Dusty (my Delica) isn't two-tone... he's just really dirty.
