Changing Avatar

Hi There

Love this new website, am just taking my time 'surfing' about....love it.

The only problem I have is being unable to upload photo/clip art to change my avatar. When I do try all I get is an empty pic box. What am I doing wrong???   Can you help...PLEASE?

Isn't 'our' Osprey family fantastic?  I have a good feeling about this year's chicks.

Kind regards and thanks

  • Hi Graham

    Thanks for your help.  Sorry, but I am still having same trouble and error message.

    I think I will be migrating with the three sisters if I don't get this solved!!!!!

    Just thought you would like to know that I have just changed my Avatar without a problem.

    Use whatever talent you possess: the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sing the best.

  • Just a thought but could the problem be that the Avatar Maureen is trying to upload is Bitmap and needs to be changed to JPG format?

    Maureen if you want to try changing it open the picture in whichever programme you use for editing your pictures.  Click on File top left of the window and then click on save as.   You then have the option to save as  jpg etc in the drop down menu.   Once saved try changing your Avatar again using the new picture.   

    I'm editing this because I read some replies after I had posted this message.  I must learn that others can help in here lol    SORRY to those who had already replied.    

    I'm so used to being the one that helps everybody with problems in chat etc.

  • Hi Teresa,

    Thanks for your thoughts. We suspect it is something like that. Maureen's avatar is correct now.

    All the best,

    Graham
