I would simply go to Yahoo and type in his name and click on 'pics.' Now we can no longer do that. I have no idea what 'host' means much less the list of acceptable hosts.

Can someone guide me through the process step-by-step to get an acceptable pic of Mike?

So, I can go on Yahoo and search a pic. And then post the pic on that link. And it will become my avatar?

Thanks. Think I'll wait to see how Mike is doing. Actually, sizing was not the problem. It's this hosting thing. We seem to have moved from simple to complex. I like simple.

The point of this thread was asking HOW to do it. No one did. Can you explain how to use photobucket?

Are you trying to upload and/or use pictures from your phone, or computer?


I'm guessing the latter.

Thanks. I'll give it a try. If it doesn't work you can do it. Starting at 2:41. Will report back.

Edit: Reporting back. Could not register. It's now 2:48. For 7 minutes they rejected every attempt to register.

just tell me what pic you want.

Or try these:
imageshack.us, flickr.com, imgur.com and tinypic.com.

Tried them all. Cannot register on any. All rejected user name and password. I don't want to post a pic right now. I want to know how to register.

Were the usernames already taken?


ETA There must be a reason all the sites rejected you. That's what I'm getting at.

They did not say. I'll try another username.

Still doesn't work. They want a capcha code. I don't have one on my keyboard.

Thats the word you type into the box usually at the bottom of the screen to verify you are human. Have you been doing that?

What would keep him from seeing/finding the captcha code? It should be on the screen right next to the box where they're asking you to enter it.

Holy Christ on the cross.

Zach, tell me where you live and I'll come over and help you. I know it is North LA. I don't care.


This is all so painful.
