Since I am realizing that my pumpkin avatar is no longer topical - I need a new one.

Anyone can tell/show me how to post a new one not already from the options?

I understand about the size issue (I know all about size issues [Wink] ) but how to actually post - you need url?
Hm....perplexed.
Anyone got a groovy one to dress me up in?

thanks [Nerd Girl]

An image search for "Elfy" yielded:

Aww. Cute.

To use a custom avatar, you need to either link directly to somewhere else (Shame on you!) or host it yourself somewhere and link to that in your profile.

Free image hosting is a bitch to find these days. For some reason, bottom-line obsessed corporations don't seem to enjoy people ruthlessly stealing their bandwidth - strange, eh?

I've got plenty of webspace and effectively unlimited bandwidth (Due to the heavy dependance on text for the content of my website), so I'm always more than happy to host avatar images for anyone.

Anyone who needs it, just mail them to 'vinas@bttg.net' with the request in the subject line, and I'll send back the link.

...oh, and credit card and certified money orders only please, no cheques... [Wink]

aw - I dig you now more for two reasons, Vinas...

1. You will provide image hosting for other's avatars.

2. You spell checks "cheques"

Hey, Vinas, Pharris wanted me to ask you if he could use the rest of your bandwidth to start up a kiddie-porn site.

Hmm. Let me check the excessively long list of things my mother wrote when I was 12 that I was never to do on the internet.

...not on there! We're in business!

They're jealous of Shostie's powers over life and death and my little pack of sponge-dinosaurs. I never knew being a BBBB Master would brand me as such an object.
