Trouble Adding Avatar: Can't Access Edit Interface

  • Thread starter T.Rex
  • Start date
In summary, Tony is having trouble using the Edit Avatar interface on the Physics Forums website. He has tried using different browsers and contacting the website, but has not received a response. He is looking for help and suggests that the website provide more information in the Edit Profile and Edit Avatar menus for future users.

Hi,
The Edit Avatar interface does not work (tried with IE 6.0 and Mozilla 1.6 and 1.7) for me. When I click the "No avatar" and the "Save Changes" buttons there is no additional menu that would enable me to provide my avatar.
I already asked to the "Contact Us" email address, but got no answer.
Who could help ?
Thanks,
Tony

Ok!

OK! That's clear now.
Maybe some explanations should appear in the "Edit Profile" and/or "Edit Avatar" menus, so that other people do not spend dozen of minutes trying to understand if it is a bug, a bad configuration of the browser, or a feature.
If it is explained elsewhere than in the "Update Membership" menu I did not see it.
Thanks,
Tony
 

What is an avatar and why is it important to have one?

An avatar is a digital representation of oneself in the virtual world. It is important to have one because it helps to personalize your online identity and make it more recognizable to others.

How do I add an avatar to my profile?

To add an avatar to your profile, go to the edit interface and look for the option to upload or select an image. Choose the image you want to use as your avatar and save your changes. If you are still having trouble, try using a different browser or device.
