Why is it that I can't use a custom avatar?

I just noticed that I can’t use an avatar. It says the admin has disabled this. However I’m seeing newer members who have them in their profile.

Any clue?

Clue. If you upload artwork you can create a thumbnail image :wink:

Yes, my friend… I am indeed clueless! :slight_smile:

Thank you!

Just a couple comments:

  1. When you create your post icon (which will appear where an avatar normally goes), make sure that it is relevant to the artwork that you are posting. Don’t just upload an avatar image and then create a post icon with it. The purpose of the post icon system is to direct people to your most recently shared artwork. If they click it expecting one thing and find something else, they won’t be happy with you!

  2. Post icons expire after 30 days. The only way to permanently have an “avatar” under your name is to share new artwork at least that often. :)
