?'s about member profile set up

Post by montster » Thu Dec 13, 2007 12:56 pm

What's up with posting personal pictures, can anyone out there help me set this up? let me see if I have this right... Setting up an "avatar" takes a link to a web page where pictures are posted?So I have to have a site set up and have the picture I want viewed on my profile posted on that site with the URL directed at the picture from the Taxi member profile page.I'm just not technically savvy enough, I think that's how it works, could anyone offer assistance in this way. Much apprec..Monty

try thisQuote:To post an avatar, go to your TaxiCommunity Forum profile page, hit edit/modify and scroll down to where you are supposed to type in your avatar location(where it can be found on the internet), just to familiarize yourself with where & how to do it.Then upload your desired avatar/picture to your myspace page. Once it's loaded, click on the picture so it opens up a single page with your desired avatar/picture. Then right click (I'm on a Mac, I hope it's the same for PCs). When you right lick on the pic you want, you'll be able to copy the http... location of your new avatar. Then paste that address into your Taxi Forum profile. It's pretty easy, but it took me a long time to figure it out too. Quote:What's up with posting personal pictures, can anyone out there help me set this up? let me see if I have this right...

The avatar is only the little picture accompanying these posts.(Like that smashing looking fellow with the "Keytar", or that hairy fellow with the bass )For your artist page, you upload those picture directly to the TAXI site, it's quite self explanatory if you click "edit" next to "Artist Pictures" on the "My Taxi Homepage" Page.ummm, does this help or confuse?Rob
