My Avatar (sailboat at sunset) is gone...?
Is there a technical reason, or has "my boat sailed off into the sunset" (without me)? :(

I'm seeing it too.

While I'm at it, I'm needing advice on how to download an avatar. I've read available info and still don't understand. Is it a download?

Help?

:cool:

It's not a download. You need to know the address/location ("URL") of an image online - and then place that URL info in your user profile for the avatar.

Some people use an image storage service such as http://www.photobucket.com to store their own images online - even an avatar.

Here's an example of the URL for the sailboat avatar for djh:

I figured out the glitch

I just realized that I don't see my avatar at my office computer only.... It shows up fine on my home computer. I must have a filter in effect that prevents my seeing it at work.

Perhaps my network administrator was afraid that looking at the image would lead to pulling up anchor and sailing south!?

Thanks for the assist!
