Avatar uploads are not allowed at this time.
Do not fear your enemies.  The worse they can do is kill you.  Do not fear friends.  At worst, they may betray you.
Fear those who do not care; they neither kill nor betray, but betrayal and murder exist because of their silent consent.

kimmer, do you have that "avatar" in a transparent gif? I didn't notice until one of your posts appeared in a light grey background that it has a white background. It looks so much better with just the agates showing! One of the few NON-rectangular avatar's! smile.gif

ok, I have enabled avatar uploads.  I think.  Try again, and let me know, or try to link to offsite and let me know.

Jennie, I decided to give Molly an update, so I uploaded my avatar directly and it worked perfect. smile.gif (Just remember to enter the correct size in the width and height boxes.)

Oh my gosh! I just saw the "add selected text as quote" button. Way Cool!


I don't see that. Which screen? Sounds like it should be a button that appears with every post. ???
Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

Gregg, if you select "fast reply" and then highlight a selection of text from a post that you wish to quote, a button will appear under your reply box which says "add selected text as a quote". If you push that, you'll get the highlighted text in quotes. (I had seen it earlier, but wasn't sure how I got it to show up till just now. smile.gif

Well, I thought I'd uploaded the "white matt gif". Apparently I didn't. fool.gif  Okay, should be all fixed now. smile.gif

 tiphat.gif  May I shout to all of you ... I collected the rocks, took the pic ... and ABD took my pic and made me several small versions so that I can use them as avatars and on the banner for my board.

My thanks to ABD! tiphat.gif

It took several seconds, but works just as you said. Thanks! smile.gif
