Gents,

I was trying to figure out how to put a picture of my jeep in my Icon location.  I read the instructions but I'm confused as to where the icon is located that I'm supposed to add the path to:  Is the photobucket path?  Or the path to my pictures on my c drive/  ? How do I get it sized to 125x125, in Photo bucket it sizes relationally, change one the other defaults.  And yes I do need specifics..

Thanks

Todd,

You can use a link to your photo on Photobucket or other photo hosting site or a link to the photo that has been uploaded to your File Manager space on this forum.  You cannot use a link to the photo on your computer because you should not be allowing Web sites to access your computer.

You should start with a photo that is cropped to be square and then resize the photo to 125 by 125.

Free Web Photo Resizer is free to use Web site that will allow you to both crop and resize your photos. 

Once you crop and resize your photo, you should upload it to the File Manager here or other hosting site, but, as I suggested, it is better to use the File Manager here to host photos that you post on the forum.
