Thread: i'm new... be gentle!

hey everyone,
my name is monster, thought i would introduce myself.
i am not new to dreams, as i have had many crazy ones...
i came to this site in search of revitalization in my interest of any kind of dream.
i am glad that there is a place like this for dreamers everywhere!


now i'm not letting you all off the hook without a couple of newbie questions:
1) how do i get an avatar?
2) what image hosting site do you all use for the purpose of posting a sig or avatar?
3) i added a sig pic, but i don't think it is showing up. is it b/c of the format i have the link in?
(it's in [IMG][/IMG] form)

thank you all for your time. hope to discuss more in the future.
love,
monster.

Hey there and welcome to the forum!!

1) Find an image on/download an image to your computer that is a 120x120 JPEG/GIF<25KB, and upload it where it says, "Load avatar!
2) Imageshack
3) It is showing up, but it is far too big! Max sig size should be 450x150 and < 150KB

If you have any questions in reguard to LDing, feel free to ask!

Welcome to the forum. Glad you could join us. If you need any help, just say the word.

thanks guys
i feel a bit silly now b/c i've already figured that avatar thing out!
i'll change my sig i guess. sorry about that.
