I'm always amused by people's attempts to put up a profile photo. So tell me Les, why did you think: http://www.timeforchess.com/profile/lesshanks@westnet.com.au

Help them... tell them about photobucket or something.

Who knows how users come up with these ideas of links that would make a photo work...

P-

This is the "Help" forum and here people can ask for any help without any embarrassment.

We have all been new here at some time. We should treat others exactly the way we would like to be treated in those days. With respect!

Here's an answer. You have to have an URL-address to the picture in question. There are places where you can upload the picture and use the URL in the "My Settings" -> "My Profile Settings" at "Profile photo" field.

Can anyone, please, give a hint of any places to one can upload a picture...?
Perhaps www.photobucket.com or some other place...?

Or,

Paste that into the box on your settings page. The mess you had was quite funny though.

Go to http://imageshack.us/ and use the browse button to upload a picture from your computer.
When it's done, copy the line that says "direct link" and paste that it in the box.

thanks it worked
