Default Why no photo?

I have uploaded images and have an album started, but why isn't my photo appearing in my posts? Is there a "default" somewhere that I am missing, or is a Rookie thing??

Thanks!
Dale

Pics that you upload to your Photo Album go into that album once they are approved. You still have to use the IMG tags to place the URL of the pic into a post.

There are some good stickies at the top of the page that describe how to post pics and also how to use the CF Photo Album feature.

We may have several issues here.

First, you may be talking about your "signature", the pics that appear at the bottom of your posts (mine here is me any my vette and a few other things). Once you create your signature, you have to select the "Show Signature" checkbox underneath this edit window for it to show each time. You will have to use hosted pics here.

Second is your avatar. That is the pic that goes under your forum name. Mine is a representation of Moses and the 10 plagues. You can upload a pic within the correct size here.

Third is your profile pic. That is a picture that can only be seen when someone checks out your profile. You can upload a pic here.

Each of these are created in the UserCP area.

From what I can see, you have done the "profile" pic. You have not put anything in your avatar or signature area.

Oh, and ...I grew up in Shreveport!
