Question:
Creating a personal profile

I am new to this site and I started my profile, but I was wondering how do you create a profile that you can write in and keep people up to date on my progress.    — Jenney (posted on May 1, 2006)

Click on the "My Profile" tab at the top of the page. Enter your log in information. About 1/3 down the page click on "General Info" scroll down that page until you see "Comments" -- this is where you enter your profile information. You can enter as much or as little information about yourself as you want. (Just a hint -- keep a copy on your own hard drive. I've never lost info, but have heard a number of people who have lost their profile info.) Good luck!

~if you want to add photos,etc...in the body of your page I use photobucket.com to add my pics to my profile. It's free and easy. Just get your username and password set then start adding pics to the site. After they're uploaded, you'll see 3 different text lines under each pic (Be sure that your account is set up to show all 3 codes, go into account options and click yes on all 3). (I also find it easier to resize your photos to the size you'd like BEFORE you upload them to photobucket...this way you know exactly the size they will appear on your profile, ahead of time. I use PaintShop Pro 9, it has some really cool features...you can download a free trial version of this at jasc.com...or you can use something like irfanview, which you can get for free at irfanview.com) To post a picture in your photo section of your profile, paste the URL that photobucket gives you into the photo boxes in your profile. To post a pic in the body of your profile, paste the TAG line into your text box of your profile (where you put your updates) NEW If you want to put pictures side by side, and they are small enough to do so, just paste in the TAG line from the first, then put in 1-2 spaces, then paste in the TAG line for the second. (best is if you have them centered also, do this by putting in the HTML code < center > before the pictures (without the spaces) and the HTML code < / center > (without the spaces) after the pictures. The message board photos though, need to be added by the OH photo team, you can send it to them, along with your user name, user ID# and e-mail addy to [email protected]
