How do I show an avatar image below my username?

Post by Luke »

Since so many new members decide not to check the Forum FAQ and instead open a thread, here is the one and only Avatar Question sticky, taken directly from the Frequently Asked Questions page

How do I show an image below my username?

The image below a username when viewing posts is known as an avatar; this is generally unique or personal to each user. In order to select an avatar, you need to have at least 50 posts outside of the Polls & Games forum. Members who post frivolously to obtain an avatar will first be warned and then suspended if nonsensical posting activity continues. Contributing to forum discussions regularly will allow a member to reach 50 posts easily and they will then be rewarded with the privilege of selecting an avatar (maximum size: 100 x 100 pixels, maximum file size: 20 KB) from their computer, the Gallery, or elsewhere on the Internet. Once a member has 50 posts, the option to select an avatar appears in the Profile editing section.

Well, it can have a negative impact as well. People could just post pure drivel in order to get an avatar.

I was just wondering how to get those pictures up onto your profile to be seen each time. Like, the small picture under your name than the big banner thing....

Hey, I want to change my icon, but every time I do, it keeps telling me "You must fill in the required fills". All of them are filled, and I checked everything and it seems fine.

Any problems with the site? Or I am doing something wrong?

Something has been screwed up, and you're now required to fill in ALL the password fields in your "Edit Profile." Hope that helps. :)

It does not matter. You must put something in. I always put in my current password 3 times.
