Help Please....

Not very smart when it comes to computers so I need to ask this question. How does one post an icon (picture) by his title. (ie where I have Ocracoke Dreaming)? Thank you so much.

Hi OD - check this thread in the Forum About These Forums: About Avatars

The little picture is known as an 'avatar'. I think you need to reach Wacko status to have one.

Avatar is a Sanskrit word that means the incarnation of a god on earth. ;->

Tim,
Thanks a lot for the info. Hopefully I'll be a Wacko in a week or so. I guess it's sent automactically to you then?

Wacko status is bestowed automatically by the system. No bells, whistles or other notification provided other than the title appearing in place of "newbie". To choose an avatar you will need to go to preferences and choose the avatar option and go from there.

Thanks Dave for helping the Newbie out. i appreciate that.

at the risk of being naive, what does wacko mean or signify?

My interpretation is that we're HOOKED ON LIGHTHOUSES!
