Piano World Home Page Forums Fun Stuff! - Parties, Tours, Projects & More... Just For The Fun of It The avatar thread

Here’s the place where we make comments about everyone’s avatars.

This might be good...

or here's the place where someone can tell me how to change my avatar to a picture from the internet rather than from this site??

Ok that too. I’ll try to figure out the simplest way to explain this for you.

The way i did it (and there are probably easier ways out there):

- Google'd for 'free avatar pictures'. Found the one i wanted.
- Right-click and save it to your hard-drive
- Go to a web hosting site: i used

http://www.imageshack.us/

Click 'browse', find your avatar file on you hard disk, and 'size it' accordingly (avatar size).

Upload the file by clicking 'Host it', BUT TAKE NOTE OF THE ADDRESS THAT THE WEBSITE GIVES YOU - the one called 'Direct link to image'. Copy it.

- Go to your account settings with pianoworld.com and get to where you can change your picture. Paste the address from the hosting site. Log out, then log back in and hopefully it has changed.
