How to display an avatar in the forum


First of all, what is an avatar?

An "avatar" is a small picture that you use to represent yourself when you communicate with others on Lao Pride Forum. Every time you post a message, your avatar and other basic details about you, will appear on the left side of the screen. Of course, you don't have to display an avatar picture, if you choose not to.

You can display a character as your avatar, by scrolling down and select one of the list of available images.

Or you can display your own picture as your avatar, by entering the URL of the location containing your picture. Then click on the box to display a "tick", this is important.

Why can't I get it to work?

Am I still kept on a leash?

Please follow the instructions carefully, and it will work.

I followed your instructions, but this BS! came up:

"System Information: You are not allowed to perform that action "

You've already choosen an avatar, I can see it.
