Weldaar Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) How do I add an avatar to my profile? I tried several pics but nothing happens. Edited July 8, 2015 by Weldaar Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 There are some restrictions on your member group, specifically users with fewer than five posts. This is simply to prevent spambots from wreaking havoc with image and profile spam. You should be able to update your avatar/profile photo here now:http://www.projectguitar.com/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core Your account has been updated to allow this. Let us know if there are any other issues. Quote Link to comment
Weldaar Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Is there a certain size recommended. I tried several sized pics and none are acceptable. Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Okay. Send me a PM and attach the image you want to use. I'll test the system to see if there is a fault that needs remedying. 1 Quote Link to comment
Weldaar Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 I am new to this site. Where do I find the message button? Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Hover over my profile in each post and PM options should appear. :-) Quote Link to comment
Weldaar Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 All that happens is it says, View Profile Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Okay, I was on the tablet at the time. Hover over a user's username in any post and a card will pop up with "find content", "send message" and a few other tools. That's your ticket. I'll log in as yourself and test the image file to see what the result is. Quote Link to comment
Weldaar Posted July 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 I guess I am computer challenged. No worries about the avatar. Thanx for your help anyway. Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 That's okay. We're all about guitars and wood hacking here. Computer skills are simply a bonus and not a pre-requisite! Feel free to ping me an avatar image anytime if you do want it sorting. Welcome onboard, by the way. Apologies for not greeting you beforehand! Quote Link to comment
Weldaar Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 No worries. No matter what I try I cannot for the life of me send you a PM. I hover, I right click, nothing seems to work. Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Any luck with this? Quote Link to comment
Tim37 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 I tried to change more mine a while back and it wouldnt let me. I am assuming its because I'm using my phone and not a computer. OK I used the gavatar option and it worked Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Yeah, there have been a number of problems with the backend software which the fresh major upgrade will fix. I foresee long hours making this all happen smoothly though. Nothing ever works as it says it does on paper.... Quote Link to comment
Tim37 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 We do appreciate the work you put in. Quote Link to comment
ScottR Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 We do appreciate the work you put in. +1 SR Quote Link to comment
Prostheta Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Cheers :-) Well, I only wish I has more brainspace to be able to dedicate to writing stuff. I have the CAD series to finish up, however my brain is in a different place rather than "CAD best practice" land! haha Hopefully we can get Weldaar up and running here. Making ProjectGuitar.com as usable as possible is a high priority. Quote Link to comment
