Couple of questions re this forum site for you Sherlock How do you alter the Karma rating. Mine seems pretty flat which isn't the case most of the time! How do you earn a star?? Even if I worked at MacDonalds I would have at least 2 or 3 by now and probably an employee of the week badge too. The apprentiship scheme here is pretty tough! When do you qualify as an old member?? Can I change my avatar to something other than a man running about in a box??? I have a rather good picture of DJ scoring the winning goal against Liverpool which I use as wallpaper. This winds up my Scouse friends and gives my karma a boost, which is good on both counts. This would be much better! If it can only be done by an administrator then I'm sure you can think of something which isn't too offensive.

C+P from a post by Sher in November....
go to your profile
Then modify profile
you need somewhere to host the pic from a photobucket account
go to 'Avatar' in your profile
paste the address of the image and away you go
If you struggle i have just set up a tangerine account on photo bucket to host the pics so not to waste space
Send me a PM using the mail button under my name and give me the location of the pic if you getting it of the web and i will sort it out
Hope that helps. YL

The star rating goes up to reflect your post count.. mods and admin get automatic star rating.
thanks yeni for sorting that out...
sorry not got much time this week or weekend just up to my eye balls with work, hopefully will have some more spare time next week to get things done on the forum

colombianseasider i forgot to mention a important part sorry once you have picked a new Avatar and you can see the new avatar in the modify profile page. you need to remove the address that is in Avatar Url: box that is lower down or it will always revert back to the old one when you press save I have taken the liberty of giving you a new avatar too you pick one lol

Hey Sherlock..just got an extra star today and am now a "Junior" member. I think "mature" is a little more acurate! but thanks for making me feel young again.
