Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

G'day oh great and clever David!

Any chance of some Space: Above and Beyond Avatars? For those of you that dont know, this was an entertaining SciFi show that pitted Humanity against a race of aliens - good space opera kind of stuff. If you do get a chance it is worth watching.

David, I was kinda hoping for an avatar of the Space fighter that they use in the show - called the Hammerhead. There are a range of pics out there of it and here are a couple of good websites to start with:

Hope I'm not asking for too much!
Cheers, Joachim.

Having my avatar thread a 'Sticky' would be a great honor. Even if it doesn't get 'stuck' I'm happy that some of you think my thread deserves this honor.

Thanks, and have a great day. Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Edit: FYI I just updated my emporium.

David, I like your avatar #242, the one with the turtle hiding in his shell, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get it into my profile.

I think I need a step-by-step since I've been trying diligently and getting nowhere.

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 

Never mind, I found the image in this thread and that made it easy.

Now to see how cool I look! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Grandpa -

1) Go to the Avatar Emporium and right-mouse-click on the pic you want to use. When the menu pops up, select "Save Picture As..." and save it to your home computer.

2) Upload that avatar picture to the Forums.

3) Click on "my profile" here at the top right corner of the Forum screen.

4) Click on the "View/Update Profile" link under "My Profile:Grandpa Kim" on the left-hand side.

5) Pan down to where the avatar image would be displayed in your profile page, then click the link "Select a Different Avatar Image"

6) An Avatar window will pop up; in this window, enter the url you got when you uploaded the avatar picture to the Forums. Then hit the button "Set URL". The avatar should appear in the upper left corner of the pop-up window. Hit "Select this Avatar" and close the window.

7) the Avatar should now appear in your Update profile page. If not, refresh it. Then hit the "Update Profile" button at the bottom of the page.

Your new avatar should appear the next time you post or edit a message.

EDIT - never mind, you got it...
