Can anyone tell me how do you actually put a picture/poster on your profile?
I've had a look on my profile page but can't see any instructions as to how to go about it.

You need to start by putting your picture on a picture hosting site such as Photobucket - then you will have an URL of it to use here.

Then if you click on your name to get to you profile and scroll down you'll see "Edit my Signature · Avatar Options · Edit my Profile " - choose any of them to get to the Control Panel page and on the left there's a list which includes changing your photo.

(waiting now to see what you look like)

Theres also an option to upload one from your computer, but it doesn't seem to like mine..... Although I do have a different filesystem, if its that I will be highly unamused..........

The pictures do still seem to have a wee bit of trouble.

At last! I've managed to put a picture on my profile! (Thanks to my son who understands a lot more about computers than I do )

The photo was taken while I was performing at a music festival in Dolgellau, North Wales. (with a band)

Thanks Sneekymum and Rosmary7391!

It's okay here, using Konqueror.

I've sorted mine now. It was just taking forever.
