Adding picture to profile

[suffolk*sue]

Can anyone tell me in simple terms how to add a picture so that it shows next to your profile when you add posts to a topic.  I have tried all ways but just can't seem to do it.

Hi Sue,

First open a post and at the bottom you will see additional options. Click on additional options and then browse until you find your image on your computer. Open your image and it will appear on the attachment. Post and your image should appear on Rootschat. That is the first step. The image can only be a certain size.

Second when you have the image on a posting, right click on the image and you will get properties including the address of the image.

Right click on the address and copy for pasting. Open your profile and paste the address into" I have my own image".

Hopefully it will appear.
Good luck but I suspect that you will require a few attempts.

Audrey,your image is too large. It is 324x428 pixels and needs to be 120/130x120/130 pixels. You must reduce the size before proceeding. If you dont have a programme download IRFANVIEW which is foc and easy to use.

When you have the correct size right click on the image and open properties. Here you will have the address of the image which you can copy for pasting.
Go into your profile and paste the address into "I have my own image". Click on modify profile and exit Rootschat. Re-enter and hopefully your image will be there. Good luck.
