Searched the web for these avatar photo jobs, and all I seem to get is gaming shite.

So could some sad boffin type out there give us a clue how to find them and how to put one up.

cheers

Well, you can use any picture from any site, so long as it's <20k in size, and < 110x120 pixels in size.

If you're in a website and see a little picture you'd like to use, then just right click it (assuming you're using Internet Explorer) and select properties.

This will show you the size and dimensions, and also the path to the picture, http://www.site.com/images/pic.jpg or summat like that. Copy that, and then use that as the link to your avatar in your user profile.

Also, there's some sites out there that have loads of avatars, eg freeavatars.net (http://www.freeavatars.net/).

If you get really stuck, just email us the pic you want  to admin@ukbouldering.com, and we can sort it out for you....

heh heh, 'tis ok, just a bit of a shock. I expect we'll see far worse as the forum expands  :)

Yeah, but I imagine there'd be a few raised eyebrows round here if I was trawling the soft pr0n sites, especially from the female members of our team. Oh wait, this is IT, there aren't any.
