Once I put a Pic to Avatar can I go back say in a week or more and change it ?

Yes, you can change it whenever you want to, as often as you want.

Bill,
Why would you want to change it? That shock pic just says it all. We will always think Bill when we see a lever shock. It took me long enough to get the fist picture, I'm not messing with it.
Take care, Chuck.

Chuck, you've done better than I have, I have been trying to Avatar and I'm lost in the woods with out a compuse. I have no idea what to do. Walt

First, make sure the picture you want to use for your avatar is on your computer. Then, click on "User CP" at the left hand top of the Ford Barn page. Under "Settings & Options," select "Edit Avatar." In the Custom Avatar section, select Option 2, and "Browse." Find your picture, "Save," and Bob's your uncle.

Hope this helps.

Bill, follow the steps, once you hit browse,wait a second, or longer, for it to respond.

Bill, you absolutely can change the Avatar picture should you desire to, but like Chuck said the one you are currently using says it all. LouB.

All my photos are done with high pixel rate. Avatar will not accept any photo. Is there a way to down-size the pictures?

Use your PC's photo program....one you can edit stuff with. Find the pic you want and open it up in that program. All photo programs (Adobe, Corel, etc) all have editing tools that include a "resize" tool. Use that to reduce your photo to about 200 x 200 pixels. Or even 150 x 150 pixels. Once resized, SAVE AS the new re-sized pic. Save it into any file you want but for ease of this discussion, save it to your desktop. Rename it....a simple way it to give it the same name but add "small" or "avtr" after the existing name.

Now when you attempt to upload the picture on the forum's avator editing tools, grab it from your desktop, and voila! Hope it works for you!
