    Default Scaring the forum members?

    One of my pals told me my avatar photo in my helmet next to my BMW 1200GS motorcycle was too intimidating, so I changed it to one took of myself sitting in a red H&M recliner today.

    I know, red shirt in a red recliner doesn't look so hot....I'll take another soon.

    So who else is brave enough to post a photo of themselves as their avatar?

    Grab a photo and size it very small in Photoshop or some other imaging program. Make it 1.5" x 1.5" or so, and set the dpi to 100. If its too large, it won't transfer.

    Then go to USED CP on the top of the forum, and you will see on the left a column called USER CONTROL PANEL. Click on EDIT AVATAR, and then link to your saved photo. That's all you have to do!

    If anyone doesn't have photoshop, just email me the photo you want to use for your Avatar and I'll image it for you and email it back. dcollie@keepingroom.com
