Wait - no picture! Testing 1-2-3

oops - i don't see my picture on the post! Does anybody see me?

I can only see your pictures in your profile, but nothing with your post. Shawn 304

Hey Julie - sorry I can't help. I'm having issues too. I'm just figuring out how to do my profile. Trying to get a picture in there but as you can see - it's not there! Confused??? Carey

The Michigan board is what is called an "old board". The first time that you post a photo and you want a picture to appear next to your posts, you need to ask the moderators to actually do that by emailing : [email protected] For the main messageboard, because it is the new system, you can change it on your own.

Hello, To post photos to your profile or on the messageboards, one of our members, Pinelope, has an awesome explanation on how to do this. So rather than reinventing the wheel, I am referring you to this link: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/amos/action,replies/board_id,4856/topic_id,1479833/cat_i d,4456/a,messageboard/ If you need further help, please do let us know. Thanks! You need to go to the main messageboard located here: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/amos/ and then in the upper left corner is a blue shaded box that should say Welcome (your name) and under that a link that says User Settings. Click on user settings. On the page that it takes you to, you should see a browse and upload button. You can use the browse button to look for a photo on your computer and then upload that image. Or you can use the alternate button to seek for one on the internet (a webpage where it's hosted). Now, do keep in mind that photos that appear as avatars (messageboard photos) cannot be larger than 100 pixels by 100 pixels in size and no more than 20k. Once you have uploaded your image and can see it in the photo preview box - go to the bottom and click the save button. If you've never had a photo posted before on Obesityhelp, your photo will only appear on the main messageboard. To have it appear on other boards, let us know and we'll go approve the photo so it shows up on them too. If I can assist you further, please do let me know. ~Tooter OH Staff

Julie, Saw your profile picture. But have to say you are so cute in person! Was great meeting you and sharing lunch last week. Hope we were able to answer some of your questions. The best of luck to you! Mary Ann

Ok, refresh your browser (hold the CTRL key and hit refresh on your browser at the same time) and you'll see your photo. First time someone ever posts a photo, it has to be approved to appear on boards other than the main messagebaord - until all boards change over to the same system.
