Has anyone received a PM?
I've sent several but haven't received a response.
shareI've received one but have not sent any.
shareHey Popcorn Kernel. I took Jim's advice and used the "tinypic" website to upload my avatar, which is a similar image that I once had on IMDb. Took me a few minutes to figure it all out, but if you want to upload an avatar, you'll have to use the URL field for message boards before uploading. I tried using the alternative field for "e-mail" but it will not work. Just thought that I would let you know.
shareWould you explain this avatar thing to me? I am confused about it๐
shareWhere is the picture you would like to use? Is it on your device or on a website?
shareit's on my Mac
shareI had good luck using tinypic.com for uploading my avatar.
Once you're there, click "Browse" and then locate your file (I saved mine to the desktop for easy access and convenience). After your file is located, click "Upload Now!" Before proceeding any further, the website should then ask you to "complete a graphic" so that it can confirm that "you aren't a robot." Many websites do this for security reasons.
Once you reach the "Share Your Image" page, be sure to highlight and then copy and paste the URL that is under "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards." Before uploading your avatar to this website, however, simply delete the word "[IMG]" from both sides of the URL.
From there, you should have a working avatar. Hope I helped you in any way! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

That is VERY helpful to know. When I get around to uploading an avatar, this will come in handy. I doubt I'd have ever thought to delete [IMG] before and after the URL. Thanks! share
So you either have to upload that picture to a sharing type of website like tiny pic or Pinterest. Or, to make this process easier, find that same image on the internet. When you find it, click on the image. Then highlight and copy it's url above in the website address field. Then come back to movie Chat and click on your edit profile button then paste that url address into the appropriate field then click save. Jim has definitely not made this an easy task lol!
