How do I post a picture?
Click here to for a full and easy to follow description of host to post a picture
If you already have your picture hosted (on your own computer, on a service like ImageStation or MSN Communities, on webspace provided by your ISP, or otherwise), then simply include the url to your picture in image tags like this: [img]http://url_goes_here[/img]
If the picture you want to post is on your computer and not accessible via the internet, you first need to get your picture hosted. If you are not hugely computer savvy, a dedicated picture hosting service is likely your best bet, as it will require the least knowledge. Some are good, some are not so great, and many cost money.

recongnizes who is posting without looking at the username. You can upload a custom avatar in GIF or JPEG format, with maximum dimensions of 120 pixels wide and 120 pixels high, and a maximum filesize of 10kB.
Instant
Messaging
Instant Messaging enables members to send an "IM" to
another user quickly. The message will arrive to other user within
seconds as a popup and/or notice at the top of the page.
When the star beside the username is listed in
the Who's Online part of the board, you can click on it to send
the user an IM. Note: The Who's Online delays 10 mins after a
user goes offline before marking the user as offline. You may
send an IM, but if the user is offline, he will recieve the IM
the next time he or she logs in. IMs are not retained; there is no Inbox or Sent folder. Once the recipient has read the message, it is gone.
How
do I modify Profile/Preferences?
Throughout the entire board, there are links to modify your profile
and preferences. These options allow you to customize the way
you surf across the board to your preferences. Also, you can modify
your profile at the same time.
