KAT Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 I know this isn't particularly a collectormania 5 topic. But I have been trying to upload an avatar for ages and it just comes up blank.

inos Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 I've got almost the same problem. When I upload one there's always the same avatar and I can't change it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEX (PSP) Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 I typed Lord Of The Rings avatar, you have to type in the name (which is in properties). It didn't work when i downloaded and clicked browse, even when you type the name in, it doesn't always work. Trial and error i'm afraid.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted January 26, 2004 Moderators Share Posted January 26, 2004 yeah it's easy enough to just link off one on a website, u just right click on it and go to properties then copy the link and paste it into the section in My Controls ... just go on Google and search for "*insert name* avatar" or something, u can search for live journal icons too, they're pretty similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAT Posted January 26, 2004 Author Share Posted January 26, 2004 Its still not working. I right clicked on the icon I want. It said getsome.jpg So I typed that in both sections and it still didn't work Am I missing something else out as well, or am I just a total eejit.
