Can someone explain avatar

[Guest REBORNevilloki]

How do I upload an avatar or picture? It keeps saying error.

I believe you need to use a image hosting website

There's many others as well

Here's a good tutorial on posting pics on forums..

they use Html tags such as

<img src=url of picture> 

as an example however here at UF the tags are different.

 

[img=url of picture] 

 

The most important issue is that the photo or graphic is first hosted by a web server, most IP providers give you an ftp site to use for this however photobucket and other free services can be used.. after the picture is uploaded to a web picture host server its simply a matter of inserting the url (location of the image) into the post or into the signature or avatar box in your personal profile. When you click the insert image icon above the post box here at the forums the image tags are automatically inserted for you, all you need to do is place the Url of the image in between the tags.
