Do I have to be a paying member to have an avatar? If not, I'm confused as to how to enable one from my user cp.

Avatars are activated for Premium members - http://www.physicsforums.com/subscriptions.php

That's what I thought. I was :confused: because I see people who don't have the "PF contributer" star beneath their name and yet they have an avatar. Do they just choose to omit the label beneath their name?

Users that had a custom avatar prior to the recent PF upgrade still have those avatars even though they are not contributors.

Actually that should have been taken care of a couple weeks ago.

Hi Tsunami, and thank you for the greeting!
I had another eye being prepared to replace this one with, but PF is very much a different place than I remember and this wandering eye may be removed entirely as I'm not at present a contributor. That horrible flashing red banner proclaiming me a winner has already given me a winning headache, and an urge to wander off to bed beckons. :D

If only I had looked on here all the way back then instead of wondering if I was drunk one night and registered. But Evo explained anyway... once again thanks to her, and my tribute in my signature still lives on!!
