Signature and Profile picture...????

[fat in the jing]

I have been trying to edit my signature and add a profile pic since I first joined Minimins over a month ago, but, unfortunately to no avail!!! I'd like to add my goals to signature, but keep being told that characters must not exceed 500....however, I see many of you guys and gals have very, very long signatures, any advice much appreciated!!

Profile picture just keeps telling me my upload has failed. I have checked and rechecked the size and picture is actually much, much smaller than the maximum size (just 16 kb) again, any help, much appreciated!!!

Thank you!!!

Or use Forum Jump on the top left of the blue tool bar on top of the page. Click on it and a box will drop down with all the names of the forum and you can click into anyone of them and your there.

When you click on a forum name like "New Comers" it opens up and you will see all the threads that are in that particular forum.


Look up on the Blue Tool Bar at the top of the page and you will see 'New Posts' Click on this and all the latest new posts as they happen are here



On the blue tool bar you will find User CP which is handy for getting into your profile to edit your signature, add an avatar or change your profile in some way.

User Cp is also where you go to add your weight tracker in your signature.

When you are a newbie

You are in a group which has no avatar, limited signature space, no Private messaging other members, no sending email to other members and you cannot upload images to the gallery.

When you reach 20 post s's you get avatar privileges and a larger signature space and can upload images to the gallery.

When you reach 50 posts, you get even more signature space, and private messaging and emailing is enabled.

I hope you understand the privileges that you will receive for being a long term poster.



FAQ is also on the tool bar and our Flash Chat room where you can talk one on one with another member.



Gallery is where you can put up your own photos, your own personal album will hold 20 good size photos, or many more smaller ones.

If you look under your avatar you will see Gallery beside your name and if you click on it, it will bring you into your very own album.

Youll be able to have a longer signature once you reach 50 posts. Things like signatures etc are restricted for members with under 50 posts, but youre almost there

[fat in the jing]

Thanks Guys!

[fat in the jing]

Got 6 more posts to go before I get longer signature priveleges

[fat in the jing]

Would anyone be very, very angry with me if I'm rather naughty and send very short messages for the next few minutes?

[fat in the jing]

[spooky]

[fat in the jing]

[fat in the jing]

[fat in the jing]

Did it!!!!!

[fat in the jing]

Will now try to alter my signature

[fat in the jing]

Still Not Working!

Signature still tells me that I cannot have more than 500 characters and profile picture stills says 'failed to upload'

Am sad

[judyboots]

Hiya...good try.
Maybe you need to log in afresh for it to recount your postings or something.

Sure it won't be long before you can have one of those sparkly names then you can be 'Bling in the Jing'!

Enjoyed reading your diary earlier. Going for my intro meeting with LL on Monday so loving reading all the inspirational stories.

Any idea of what file type you picture is? Gif? Jpeg? Png? If it's a different type, it might need converting.
