avatar?

why is this site updated i prefer the other one now my avatar is gone and you cant show you images directly anymore why is that??

I appreciate losing Avatars is a bit annoying. However the old forum is still there at http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/phpBB2/ but is now read only. You can retrieve your avatar from there if you wish. You may have to resize it.

Many people have asked for greater control on Avatars (i.e. limited size etc.) and some of this has been introduced.

You should still be able to upload images as attachments or using the image tags (tested below). Old attachments have been lost but the old forum is still there if you need to get at them.

If people have any other comments and suggestion I'm listening 😊

All in all I feel the advantages will outweigh the losses.

and Arni - sorry no change on that front. No you know what allowed. 😊

WHEN I TRY TO SET UP AN AVATAR BY CLICKING THE CHANGE AVATAR BUTTON IN MY PROFILE IT TAKES ME TO THE PASSWORD RECOVERY FORM!!! I'M SLIGHTLY CONFUSED.

Dear Rafe, I want to upload the above avatar but still cant find a way to do it. Can you please assist?

Tried the link you gave above, but it says No. I have no other option.

Thanks and best rgds.

The default setting is that you need 50+ posts for a custom avatar. I'll review this at some point.

I can upload your avatar (along with some others) into a gerneric pool that everyone can then use. This way you can use it before making 50 posts.

What about your "tiger" avatar,Rafe?
I kinda missed it. It really showed who is the boss here.
Now without it you seem like a newbie... 🙄

Yep, that's why they invented push-up bra's... 😛

the last thing I need is a push-up bra... I don't think they've built one that could handle the job anyway

😱 😃

But anyway, nice to see I didn't offend you, not everybody can take a joke these days.

[edit]
just went to your website, your post made me a bit curious. You're probably right about that bra thing.....

It's a good sign when you're unoffendable, means you have a good personality.

I updated my homepage last week, it's in Dutch though... you can take a look at
