Title: Help me get my avatar back
Post by: starry-eyed pirate on August 14, 2008, 02:03:37 PM

I wonder if anyone can tell me why my avatar doesn't come up when I post.  Or if someone can help me remedy this situation.  I rather enjoy my avatar and I'd like to see it next to my posts...

Thanks, -pirate

Do you remember which site it was on that you had it from?  I'm not sure how it got lost in the transfer...  what did it look like and can you find it again?

Hi Psy, it's been gone for a long time now. Don't really know how to tell you which site it came from except to say that I picked it when I joined fornits back in May of 2005.  It was a black and white picture of some humorless ol' sea dog with black hair and a hook nose.  This site has changed forms many times since then and for a while I wasn't postin much so I didn't really care that much but now I miss it.

And BTW that's not it, and I have no idea who put that avatar next to my username or how it got there but I don't much care for it.  

I gotta get on the road now so I'll have to come back to this later.  Thanks for anything you can do to help.

-pirate out.

Gonna take a bit of a nap now, but when I get up, i'll go find your avatar using google's cache and fix it.

I kinda miss mine too. They were both from the old phpbb toons avatar set. Maybe I can find them real quick. Mean time, you can go into your profile settings and pick whatever avatar you want for now from whatever we have or find one out on the net and use it.

Thanks Ant.  I went to my profile but that's as far as I could get with this.  I don't see how to find the avatars...

I'm hopin' that Psy will come thru for me when he wakes up.

Pirate just doesn't want anyone to know that he recently got a sex change and does, in fact, resemble his/her new avatar.


I'm completely non-corporeal, that's why I don't have an avatar........
