Real picture for forums ?

[Sassy Kenin]

Old time resident after all these years thought to post a bit on forum but wandering why my photo has to be picked from a selection & not me as others have real photos ??

 

Thanks Sassy

You need to upload it to the forums. This is not connected to your in world profile for textures. Click on "My Settings"  > "Avatars" > My Images Page.

From there you can add photos.

 

ETA: DOH! I am so stupid! What I said was for the smaller "avatar" picture. Malanya is correct. Disregard my posting above.

Hi Sassy,

at the top of the web page go to "My Settings" then you will have different tabs to choose. Click on Social Connect. You can then pick the badge layout and browse your computer for a couple of images. To make a small picture of you inside the bigger badge picture, click on the Avatar tab and choose one of your uploaded pictures and save.

Here is a helpful topic that will may help you also:  http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Your-Avatar/How-to-create-a-cool-forum-avatar-badge/m-p/707025#M190

 

Hope this helps.
