Q: What is an avatar and how can I put an avatar next to my name

A: Avatar is an image that shows below your username. Go to "Profile" on the navigator, scroll to the bottom, and upload an image from your machine or URL.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why won't it upload the picture I chose ?

A: Either the size is too big or the avatar is bigger than 100 x 100 pixels and could be more than 49 KB in size.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Do we have a gallery?

A: Unfortunately we don't have one yet.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: I don't understand computers, and I don't have an image in my avatar slot. What should I do?

A. Get the Picture
1. Open Google and search for picture only
2. Search for anything, i.e. dragon, rainbow, candy bar, valentine, Christmas, horse, flower etc etc.
3. Click on the image you like and get a full picture
4. Save the image onto your PC under documents using JPEG format.

B. How to Resize your Image
1. Open Adobe Photoshop, or ACDsee, or Microsoft Photo Editor, or anything that edits images and click on IMAGE -> “resize” or “image size”.
2. Or if you really don't have any of those softwares in your computer, go to http://www.downloads.com and search for image editing, I am sure that you will find a free one. Normally they would have an option called resize or image size.
2. It must not be more than 100 pixels x 100 pixels and no bigger than 49 Kb.
3. Save the image under a different name, still on JPEG/JPG format.

Q: Why can't I make italized word or colorful word, my typing looks like this: {i}blahblah {/i} why is that??

A: Mmmk.... Yeah, the "Submit" button is very sensitive. If you 'accidentally' press the submit button and you press STOP (to cancel it), your post has been sent anyway.. So you need to wait for it to load and EDIT it or DELETE your extra post. (It is your post you can delete it you know :?).
