Ant, I want an avatar but a question. How are all of you picking them? Do you just go to photobucket or where do you go to come up with all these snappy avatars?

I have been looking at avatars and animated gifs since I last posted. I laughed a lot, and well, it would seem I am more attrcted to the cussing avatars at the moment.....hehehehe.
I think Ant, it would be wise for me to take a look and let it ride a few days considering the "mood" I seem to be in.
okay, I definately have an ending thing. So whenever you can help out, we will see if we can't get it up there. Its a saying by Margaret Mead. Do I have to have an address for that, or can I just type it from memory and then insert? Hmmmm.....think I will go fiddle with that for awhile.
Thank you Ant.

Right click on the avatar that you want to take off the internet click on "save picture as" --when the prompt comes up-- put where you want the picture saved on your computer in the drop down menu ie. documents pictures desk top --remember what folder you put the image in Then name the picture something that you will remember example " if it is a cow that is udderly insane = udderlyinsaincow then click on save Now you need to host your picture go here www.devcan.com/imagehost/On the devcan web page Click on browse --a prompt will come up that is almost same as the one when you saved your picture If you saved your picture in documents pick documents in the drop down menu ---your document files on your computer will show up--- scroll to find the picture you named click on it to choose it --then click on open -- on the prompt Then on the devcan web page click on upload image wait for the image to load Once it is loaded devcon will give you a several links for your picture---- pick the direct link ----copy it go to your profile on lymebusters by clicking on the profile link at the top of the lymebusters page when your logged in When you get into your profile click on modify profile scroll down you will see a place that says avatar -- paste the link there and click on modify at the bottom of the profile page your done you've done it ! yaaaaaaaay To do your signature follow all the steps above but put the link to your picture in the space in your profile where it says signature You don't have to use the image code on the link in your avatar but you do have to use an image code on the link in your signature for it to show up as a picture not a link it should look something like this [img]http//cowpoop.com[/img] Another way to do this is you could pm me the links to your avatar and your sigiture and I could put them up for you then you could go to the modify section of your profile and see how I did it so you can do it next time ;D

Got it!!! Yeah Ant, my hero! What was confusing me is that there is no heading "direct link" like in photobucket or etc. In Devcan, there is a family and friends option, jpeg file link. This link is the one that worked for me. There were three choices of link types, its the middle one. Thank you so much for helping me. I am the generation before X. Neither computer smart or computer dumb..... Hmmm, seems a tad bit too small......
