Altering Settings

[grumpy]

In the last few days I have been unable to change either my Avatar or Signature details. Never had any trouble
prior to the upgrade of the forum some days ago. Is there anything that I have missed, am going through all
the right (I thought) motions.

Can you tell us what browser you are using, plus version.

[grumpy]

Elaine,
I run two computers running into a modem with multiple input ports. One computer is running IE9 with windows 7
SP1 and the other is running IE8 with windows XP SP3. The actions I was trying to complete were done by the latter.

There are occasional issues when people use older version of browsers, but obviously not the problem in your case!
I have no idea. Have checked the vBulletin forums and cannot see any other similar problems.
I'll mention it to Tim - he might have a suggestion.

Thanks Elaine, I will try to change the settings using the other (Win7) in the morning and see what happens. I usually
change computers in the afternoon, mainly to keep the oldie in shape.

Tim had a look last night, cannot see any reason why you are having problems chaning avatar or signature. Did it work on your other computer?

[grumpy]

Elaine,
Nope just the same, also having trouble when in advanced to get a smilie to load, if it does it usually comes up on my screen as a
alpha combination, but when the message is sent it changes to the smilie. Wierd.

As you say weird. There is always someone that seems to have a problem of some sort following an upgrade. Looks as if it's your turn. I really don't know what to suggest other than clear cookies, cache etc., although you may have already tried that.

I can see why you might want to change your signature ... being reminded that it's only 8^o can't be fun!
We are expecting temperatures here today of around 30^o so I'll be thinking of you! ;)

Elaine,
It's night time and the temp is entitled to be 8C:D, however winter in Canberra is an experience a lot of people do not wish for.
I can get rid of the temp gauge with no problem, its putting up just a simple signature that is. On rereading the instructions for sigs I think I should go through the bucket rather than just typing my name in. Will try that later and see what happens.Thanks for your valuable time and help.

I can see your typed name in the signature - if you are trying to do it as an image then I wonder if it's because only one link is allowed, although we used to allow more than one providing they came within the recommended image size.

[grumpy]

I would think that more than one image was still allowed noting some of the Wattlers group have more than one image, which would
certainly be more than a signature and the temp image. Will try and sort it out in the morning as I am shortly signing off for the night.
Cheers
