Mark, I placed a small thumbnail image @
http://photobucket.com/albums/v669/Wilk ... eff01s.jpg
to use as my avatar image. When I place this URL into the Profile, it just goes blank after I press SUBMIT. Am I missing a step here?

Hello Jeff:

When I click on that link, it takes me to the PhotoBucket logon screen -- it probably works from your machine because you have their cookie. Is that the "URL" link?

Neil,

You may be right. The link I used (and have pasted in my 1st post) is the URL that shows in the browser window when I go directly to photobucket.com and navigate to my "album" location and the specific photo within the album. I don't have to login to get there on my computer, so I thought it would work that way on others. Should I be doing this some other way, or is there another way to give the address to this web-located photo? If there's a simpler way, I'm open to it.

Hello Jeff:

I don't think you can use the Album location -- it has to be a direct link to the image file.

This is the PhotoBucket link to my dual monitor pic:

which is the one that you should paste into the Profile. If you want it to show up in a post, use the like this:



Your URL has the "action..." bit and that is the issue, I think.

Neil,

Thanks a godzillian. Obviously it works now. The "action= etc." stuff threw the link off as you thought.

Nice monitors! It's like going to the old drive in movie.
