Thread: Why is my profile avatar not shown in the forum?

  1. #1

    Question Why is my profile avatar not shown in the forum?

    I have an avatar on my profile : http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/member.php/42842-Rouxenator
    Why can't it be used in my forum posts?

    Yes, that advise does not work.

    Your profile picture is different to your forum avatar.

    Go here to change to forum avatar: http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/profile.php?do=editavatar

    Or PM one of the mods if you want a custom avatar.

    I just want to make certain you're requesting it rather than making a general enquiry.

    Ah, ok. I see.

    In that case they should introduce more picture types to add to the confusion as two is too subtle. Maybe that can add "Character" and also "User Image" or perhaps "Member Icon". I think then, with five image representations for the same logon, they will achieve the desired effect.
