CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

It's true, I am. I just became a member yesterday, and so far I don't have a little picture to put next to my screenname. i believe it's called a profile picture. i found a really picture on google image search and i right-clicked the little image that says "click image to enlarge" I then came back to CAA to upload it to my computer and it said I did something wrong. Now i don't know much about computers , so could someone tell me what I was doing wrong, give me some suggestions, tell me how they got their profile pics, etc? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

if your talking about when you post thats a avatar.

Hi Heero. Well first we need to clarify. Are you talking about the picture that appears in the left column beneath your name? Or are you talking about the picture people will see if they click on your name and see your extended profile?

Yes, I meant the picture that appears in the left collumn beneath the name.

The image might be oversized, can you post it here?

Yep, it's called an avatar, common in most forums...hmm, there's a 90x90 pixel limit, I think that's it, so if the file is too large it won't work (Mine is like, 90x87 so that's a good idea the limit of how big the pic can be),

if it fits, then it should be able to work if you copy the url into the avatar section of your usercp...or just save it to your comp and browse for it (which might be easier to use if you can't isolate your picture on the website) I hope that makes a little sense.

okay thanks

There's also a tutorial in the FAQ section.
