Yup, wrong forum mate. Thread moved.

Its probably user error, I have no idea what you are doing wrong, but your doing something wrong.

Tell us what you did

Maybe one of his multis is just really stupid. But that would be silly, as it's obviously just a new member. No harm done.

If you're using google to look up an avatar, and then try to copy the link straight from the google page, it won't work. At least, not in my experience. So go straight to the actual image in its original page or whatever, then copy+paste it.

But yeah, it'd be best to let everyone know what it is you're doing, and we can find out what's wrong.

To upload an avatar, go to the My Profile link on the left sidebar and scroll down to the Avatar Control Panel at the bottom. Then either upload a picture from your computer, or copy one from another site by linking to the URL of that pic. If you're still having problems, tell us where.

Go to Flame wars, and ask there.
I am sure that someone can easily assist you there, such as Ronaldinho

He's very nice, and will assist you if you ask directly

gee, hes already making a very lasting impression on CC. im sure his social calender will be very busy

Being the saint I am, I feel obliged.

First, you've got to find a picture you want to have as your avatar. Go to Google Images and type in whatever you want to have in your avatar and click enter. Next it'll probly be easier just to look at small images. Once you find what you want, left click on the picture you like. Go to the very top and click on "See Image Alone." This will take you to a screen that has only the picture on it. Now Right click on the image, and scroll down until you reach the option that says "Copy Image Location.

Once you have done that, come on over to Conquer Club and log on. Look at Personal Menu on the left side of the screen. The first box down says My Profile, click on it. Scroll all the way down until you reach "Upload Avatar from a URL." Right click on the blank box next it, and scroll down until you reach "Paste." Click on that, and the URL of the image should appear in the box. If a bunch of text shows up in there, go ahead and click on submit.

If it still doesn't work, then you've done something wrong, and you should re-read the directions to make sure you did everything correctly.

thanks

now how do you get the avatars that move

like misterman10

get a gif animator..

"Ulead" and "easy gif animator" are ok - Ulead slightly better imo.

You upload the animated gif the same way as with all avatars.

this is very confusing somebody explain this better

Sorry.. I just assumed you knew how to google and were looking for recommendations rather than a step-by-step instruction..

1. Go here ---> http://www.download.com/Ulead-GIF-Anima ... 22267.html

2. click on the blue text that says: "download now" for a 15 day trial..

3. save to desktop or wherever you will be able to find it..

4. install the program

5. try to figure it out ( it is supposed to be the easiest gif animator )



If you still are confused try using http://www.google.com
