Good idea! yeah not pickin on things but the customization for points is kinda ghey, you need to be able to express yerself with yer feelings not with Points... to much like real life its depressing lol Just the Image options shouldnt require points.... everything is justified..... but your appearance? that should be free like some of my freedoms.....

Nice work thoe love the idea....

Stay creative..........

Thanks again, Trance. You have some awesome creations yourself!

I see that I had inadvertantly deleted some of my avatars from my upload space, during a recent housecleaning there. Will post them again, after I upload them to my Photobucket account.....

Time and time again, I keep getting requests for avatar upload instructions. Regardless of all of the excellent instructions already available, be it the 'Avatar - The Ultimate Help' thread, or 'ATS Help Files'. I still get requests for this information from new members.

So, I have once again, put together Avatar Upload instructions, with a pictoral guide.


Avatar Upload Instructions:


Before you start:
1. Know exactly where on your computer, your image is.

2. Your image must be in .jpg .gif or .png format.

3. Filesize should be 75 kb, or less.

4. Dimensions in pixels, should be no greater than 160 pixels wide,

and 320 pixels high.

Now that all of that has been said, you go first to the 'memCenter' (You MUST go to memCenter from AboveTopSecret! You can not access Member Upload from BelowTopSecret:

This link will also take you there. --->

Then, on the left of the screen find 'Member Upload':

This link will also take you there. --->

Click on 'Browse' and locate your image filename on your computer. Click on it, to enter it. Click on 'Upload.



At this point, highlight the url in the textbox, right click, then 'Copy'. If you have a different image already uploaded, right click the filename, and go to properties, highlight and copy the url




Now we go to 'Settings'.

This link will also rake you there. --->

Find the 'Edit Profile' link:



This should take you there, as well. --->Edit Profile

There, look for the 'Avatar Url' text box. Follow the instructions that follow:




You will be taken to a confirmation page, which should state that your profile has been edited successfully. It usually takes a little bit longer for the new avatar to load, as it is the first time. Wait until the page finishes loading, and check to make sure your avatar uploaded to the servers.

You now have an avatar!
