The properties of the little red cross in a white box are "http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/photos.php?action=showphoto&photo=55
chevy.JPG"
I guess that is what you put in on the control panel?
What you want to put in is
"http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/upload/55%20chevy.JPG" without the ""'s though!
Although personally I'd make it a bit smaller first. Might be a bit wide for some.
Cheers
Mike

Yup, tis a bit big for an avatar - resize it to 200 pixels wide and then right click the pic in your archive, then plonk the properties text into your
profile

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

Why doesn't mine work, I have had it working once but the general opinion was it was a bit too rude.

Hi if your using that link in your avatar box it wont work because thats the address for the whole page not just the image.
If you right click the image itself on the page, go to properties and copy the image address from there, thats the one you need to paste.
You get
http://locostbuilders.co.uk/upload/MRJihad.jpg
Try using this instead

Thank you esn163, it seems the text is case sensitive, I would never have spotted that.
