We took a vote - you can't have one.;)
Ok - click Preferences at the top of the page, when you get there, click on Avatar and follow the instructions.

First you need to find an icon that you want to use as an avatar.
When you have located one and have access to it go to PREFERENCES and you will see an AVATAR link.
Select this to see how to submit you avatar.

AdmKrag2 actually has enough points for his first star (probably on its way). Are you sure that the "avatar" link is not right under the "forum preferences" on your "preferences" page? -- Join the DSL Reports SETI Team! |

Have you tried to upload one?
You have to upload on and THEN it has to OKed by a moderator.
If you uploaded one, that might be why you don't see it yet.
Or it could be that it was not close enough to the right size or somebdy else was already using it, but unlikely... I would wait until at least after Monday before I would worry about it. |

Did you ever log in with your temporary password? No matter how many points you have, the link for posting an avatar won't appear until you've used the temporary password. -- 2 cams, 5 cats, 7 days a week. |

Re: Avatar woesThere is a certain minimum time as a member before you are eligible for an avatar. If that is the issue, a few days should solve it. Has anybody gotten an avatar when they've been a member for less than 10 days? -- Join the DSL Reports SETI Team! |

Re: Avatar woesIt SAYS you have to be here a week. He was just here bearly a week. Maybe it was the weekend too.
I am concerned that he does not have his star yet. He have over 2000 points.
Who sets the stars and stuff?
Justin?
If you are not able to upload an avatar by tuesday, Instant Message Justin. |

Don't worry about it so much! Good things come to those who wait! It will be there, my star #3 took a couple of days to show up, as did #2.
