I went into the options in my profile and selected an avatar, but it's not showing up in my posts. What am I doing wrong? :confused:

Are you using your own custom avatar, or one of the stock ones? If its a custom avatar, it needs to be under 64x64 pixles and 5120 bytes. Also, make sure you sellect "Yes" under Use custom avatar.

I was just trying to use one of the stock ones, but it doesn't show up. Am I forgetting to hit a button?

Step by step:

Click edit avatar (http://www.bikeforums.net/member.php?s=&action=editavatar) under profile / edit options.

Click the little white dot next to the picture you want to sellect, make sure that picture i sellected (will have a black dot, in the white dot...)

Click on Submit Modifications.

Did it work? If not, tell me more about what computer / browser you are using? Win ME? Internet Explore? There may be a bug i need to squash :)
