Ok stupid question. How do you get your pic on your profile? Every other site has an upload function. I know, I know...it's a good thing I am better at music than computers. Help?!Paul

Step 1: host your pic somewhere else on the web...photobucket, etc. I use photobucket 'cause it's free.Step 2: make sure your pic is avatar size (less than or equal to 100 x 100 pixels). Photobucket can do this for you after you upload.Step 3: copy the url of the picture onto your clipboard. Photobucket is a bit tricky...once you find your picture album, there is a little window which provides this for you...find and copy all the text in that windowStep 4: go to your profile here at the Taxi forum, and enter your url so it knows where to find itStep 5: Remember "Devin likes Sam Adams" in case we ever meet up

Now, you tell us. I spent several hours workin' that out fer myself the other night. Resizing the photos turned out to be the tricky part; my hometown music BB (
http://www.thirdleg.net/phpBB2/)demanded a file size of 6k or less, I used Xnview, resulting in a lot of trial and error. Turns out Photobucket's web editor has a file size indicator, but I overlooked it.
