I think everything's okay.  Just under my profile info/show stats, it says I am online all through the night but not during the day or early evening.  I guess it's showing opposite times to when I am actually on the Forum.

Also Pip...  =+- I've just noticed the majority of my "additional smiley's" aren't working

Are you talking about ones you've uploaded yourself as I have clicked on [more] and those work okay.

Pip, I am having trouble as well, when I press 'more' many are just squares and I cannot see what they are.  I have the first line of smilies and the cats but not any of the others. Also my avatar has gone.

I've managed to get my avatar back ( I did toy with a Bart Simpson mooning, but I'll save that for another Day.) I can't seem to find ANY smileys. It is quite possible that I am doing something wrong, because I'm trying to get used to Windows 8 as well. Best wishes. Michael.

Slightly different, but I'm being a bit dim, when you look at the information centre are something's bold & big print? If so what does it mean?

Me again. As I am typing this, there is the (more) link in cyan, but this just takes me to a few basic Smileys. I have also noticed that my hugs etc in previous messages no longer show up as animated doodahs, but just show as the text equivalent. I will just click on the icons at either end of those listed when clicking the link. Hope that this helps in some way.  ;) $%^

Pip - no, the the additional smileys on the forum aren't working.

Michael, I also recently bought windows 8 computer, it takes a bit of getting used too.  I barely use the window tiles, mainly by pass it and just use the old familiar window desktop function.  I think there is a Windows 8 for Dummies.

Last time I tried to send a message, the dropping acid and wide arms hug were available. I don't know if you have been working on it, but SOMETHING is changing.  "£$  *()

Oh sorry Pip, There's no rush from me. I just thought that the updates might help. Tell you what - take the rest of the evening off. :hug: Many thanks.

I think I must be going crackers, but in my recent post section some posts are bold and in a bigger font than the others. Anyone else notice this ?????????

 0158 Thanks Pip.

Buttercup, I had noticed a few oddities in the size of the font, and similar things, but I thought that I must be doing something wrong. I tried to make some changes to compensate, but I think that I should have trusted my very first instinct, and leave EVERYTHING alone!

I think it's just where the upgrade is settling down.  The smilies were okay this morning then there were problems so I had to delete all the ones I had uploaded and redo them, off to bed now  sLeep12

Michael, your cats look ok to me.

Can anyone other than me see my avatar?
Title: Re: Profiles / notifications
Post by: Pip on March 11, 2013, 11:51:31 PM
Your avatar isn't showing for me.  I've taken a look at your profile and don't understand why it isn't showing as the link you put in looks okay.

I copied and pasted the url into my browser, right clicked on the image and then clicked on save image as so it went into my downloads. I then went into your profile and uploaded it from my laptop  :bgrin:

I will be gradually getting more avatar packs up but I also do google searches for free avatars then click on search results.

This is one site I use http://avatars.jurko.net/ (http://avatars.jurko.net/)

On http://www.google.com (http://www.google.com) click on images then do a google search for images.
