Oh crumbs - is this the problem? I don't get to see what you've shown in your posting!!! I've been clicking on the BBC icons (2nd row, 4th from the left) and putting the address between the "img" bits...

What do I have to do to see the part which you show???   ???

At least I know now why I never get notified of replies to my posts...

Yippee !!!


Next step, resize it to about 70 *  50 (see my link, earlier) and
then do the same again

Right-click on the (smaller !) image, click on 'eigenschaften' and you will see an address something like
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=61519.0;id=5475;image
(your present picture)

This is the address you then need to put in your profile !!

Good luck, I'm off home now, I'll look in again this evening !
Bob
