How do I add profile image (avatar)?

Post by Gordon »


If you just joined the forum and wonder how we add these beautiful images of our selves or our equipment next to our user names, I will explain how we did it.

In the upper right corner you will see your user name. Just click on it and you will see some options. Select "User Control Panel" (UCP) and it will open a new page with LOTS of options.

To add or change your avatar (profile image), click on the "profile" tab and select 'edit avatar' from the list on left side of the page.

You can now upload an image for your avatar. Please note the size restrictions for the image
Maximum dimensions; width: 150 pixels, height: 150 pixels.

Hi Gordon. There are many new members who have joined us (with a nice profile) here on TSS, but don't make an Introduction post. Your tutorial above should help these new members get started so that we can welcome them on board.
