Showing my ignorance

[juniperlee]

Hi all!

I'm not sure if this post is in the correct location but please bear with me...

Often times I don't get along too well with technology. I was trying to pep up my profile and actually said, "Huh???!!!" at the part about uploading a profile picture. Can anyone help me? How do you know what the http//: _____ of a picture is???

So sorry if this doesn't make any sense...but please help if you can. Like I said:

Me + Computer = ....uh oh!

Thanks!!!

You have to save a photo off your desktop to a service like www.flickr.com . flickr will provide you with a "http" you can grab and load to your profile.

I'm far from being an expert, but I can tell you what I did. Do a google search for a picture, go to the site and copy the whole address (it should start with http//: ). Then paste the address on that part of your profile where it asks for an Avatar URL. The picture will show up in your profile. You can address the size of the picture using the vertical and horizontal dimensions in your profile with the largest number being 100. Hope that helps.
