Since my RV is not flying yet I can only dream about flying it. My avatar now reflects just one of those dreams.

Nose cold, weapons safe, 29.92 set. Anyone up for a "how long can I have my hands resting on the HUD during refueling" contest?

Thanks for enabling the avatars! I'm finding it gives browsing the forums a whole new 'feel'.

My pleasure, Jamie! I really like the feel it produces, and since my job is providing 'RV Virtual Escapism', I think it adds to that well.

Default How? Where?

I have no clue of where to even begin to insert one. Where are the instructions?

Thanks,

From the top of VAF a couple days ago...
New feature #2: How to insert an 'avatar' of yourself:
An avatar is a little picture that appears next to all of your posts (preferably of you or your RV). It personalizes the experience more and fosters the 'family feel' better than without it. To set one up, first you'll have to create an 80 x 80 pixel graphic less than 10KB on your own, then make sure you are
registered and logged in to the forums. Click on 'UserCP' up in the left corner, then 'Edit Avatar'. You'll figure out the rest pretty easy. The same rules that apply to text also apply to avatars, only more stringently. I did mine in Photoshop.

Some are using http://shrinkpictures.com/create-avatar/ to create one from a photo.

b,
dr
