I must have totally done something wrong - when I try to look at the saved file on my computer - it is blank. I do have another one that seems to have worked and it is an explorer file - maybe I should try it?

when i change my avatar it will often say it's not saved but then I go check on one of my posts and the new one is showing.. I don't know why..

So if you get a message saying it's not saved or loaded - go check one of your posts to see if it really is or not.

It doesn't look to be saving correctly on my c: drive..... it appears to be blank. I am right clicking and selecting "save picture as" and choosing .gif - does that look right?

I just did it with a glitter graphic avatar.

I think I'll keep that one for awhile - I like it.

So you clicked the graphic you wanted correct?
then on the next page down below it says "click here to download"
then a little window pops up and tells you to "save as" or "save image as"
that's where I right clicked and did the save -and saved in in my pictures area.

then went to the User CP page here and avatar section
then used the Browse to locate the saved graphic - size was fine as it was - and clicked to upload it.

I do get this notice every time - Upload of file failed.

But my new avatar always shows - so don't believe that notice if you get it.

Jo:

I absolutely adore the glitter graphic website. I have a question though. I want to insert it in my emails.

I haven't been able to do this. I do the copy, I do the paste, but nothing shows up in an email. Now I don't know if I'm allowed to do this. I don't want to break any rules, but if it's allowed, how does one put a glitter graphic into an email?

Thanks.
