Grrrrr,Blasted Avatars!
My profile is taking up to 4 minutes to completely load,there is NO checkbox at the top either.What am I doing wrong.BTW WHY should we have to have ANOT|HER account elsewhere,it's very bad.
On the forum I modertate on,you just upload a pic from anywhere(or My Pictures) you don't have to go through all this rigmarole!
I don't think I will bother,I shall stay as a "Jelly Baby".

[Mamyalynne]

Well it looks like we will be jelly twins then Mr V, I have followed all instructions and still no tick box?/ I would have thpught uploading your pic from computer would have been simpler.

[LoftyLottie]

I haven't got a checkbox either~!!

[marval]

Looks like I might be a jelly baby for a while. Gravitar won't accept any of the user names I try, it keeps coming up with already used.

[Mr Veritas]

Hi ther mamaya,
Yep,
We will still be pink for a while anyway!
When we could (for a VERY short while)upload Avatars when new AB was loaded it was simplicity itself,but now it seems to have dropped into the realms of fantasy. LOL

[coccinelle]

I'm going to stay a jelly baby but I would have liked to have chosen my own colour!

[cazzz1975]

maybe you can form a "keeping it real jellyman club" ?

[poodicat]

Me also

[Robinia]

I had trouble finding a username too marval. I'm not thrilled about avatars, I don't see what the attraction is, it reminds me of having a picture next to my coat peg in infants school.
Oh well, at least everyone knows what I look like now :o)

[swedeheart]

Mr Veritas I'm thinking Gravatar has payed AB quite a lot for this.

[Mr Veritas]

Indeed swedeheart,
My gripe is,WHY should have to register again just to get an Avatar.

[swedeheart]

Cos if you don't register (again) at Gravatar, Gravatar's market value (if that's the right word, sorry, I'm Swedish) won't increase, and if it doesn't increase, Gravatar won't pay AB.

[marval]

I am glad it is not just me Robinia, every name I have put in it says is already being used. I might have to try something totally different.

[coccinelle]

marval; try a foreign name, you'll have more luck!

[marval]

Thank you coccinelle, I will try that.
