Selecting a new avatar?

Post by John Upham » Sat Jun 11, 2011 7:10 pm

I have removed my previous avatar and found that I can only select a new one from a gallery of Disney like images rather than something more meaningful.

Has this option been turned off or I am I being thick as usual?

I would prefer to browse for a replacement avatar from a local file or URL.

Tough, I have turned that option off but happy to consider an optional file if you want to email me one in that I can add to the special section

Is AMCA no more then?

I've uploaded a BCM avatar to the MySQL database.

AMCA is alive and well.

Try that one, there is a small black line at the bottom of the image it seems but it should be ok when selected from the special section in the gallery
