Avatars & Signatures?

I can't seem to find out how to upload a picture (avatar) or put a signature.

You should see UserCP Register FAQ MembersList Calendar in upper left area

click on UserCP (stands for User Control Panel)

In the screen that comes up, you'll have various selections running down the left side of the page, including Edit Signature and Edit Avatar

The signature and avatar ability does not appear until you've been here awhile. There is a time and post number that the site owner uses to decide when to turn that feature on (or he has it set automatically and changes it from time to time).

Anyway - no one but Chuck (site owner) knows the equation, and if someone figures it out, he usually changes it.

So, just keep posting and checking your userCP and those features should show up at some time.

It took over 120 posts and over one month membership time for me. I just got my avatar online yesterday.

I'll tell you how you can find pictures of football shoulder pads yourself. That way you can pick something that's "just right" and what you have in mind.

Go go http://www.google.com
Click "images" (top right corner of the screen)
Put the words "football shoulderpads" in the search field and press enter or click the search key.

You'll need to save them to disk before you can upload them and use them for an avatar. Right-click the image and then click "save image as" and give it a location and filename.

Be careful that you are not infringing on copyrights.

Oh, thank you! I have been wondering the same thing. thought maybe I was just not computer literate enough to find it myself.
