Kristen or Sydney, could you give me any hints on how to make an avatar out of a normal picture? I've got the bit I want making, but whenever I resize it it messes up...
|
Sorry for double-posting, but it won't let me attatch a file when I edit, and I thought I'd attatch the picture I want making into an avatar, so you can see what I'm trying to do.
I want the head... |
My cute avatar that I made won't work...

Danny... I would just crop around the head as it's much the size of the Avatars anyway. If you continue to have problems, then I can do it for you.
Gluck Schmuck... there's currently a small bug with custom avatars... after you browse for your file, check to see if the YES is still selected. There seems to be a small bug that it reverts back to the first avatar on the list after you browse, but you can get around it if you click yes after browsing. I have looked at other vBulletin boards I am a member of and they don't have that problem. I will post in the support forums to find out what is going on. Abe Babe... |
Ooowww....The oddworld forums for the new millenium...it looks like such a furutisitc way to do all this silliness. :P I'll have to think of a cool personal avatar :) Ahhh The possibilities....Nice job guys!
|
Thank you!
I was trying to get it to use the avatar I uploaded... *shows off new avatar* |

Just checking to see if my signuture and banner is still there, can ya see it enyone? :p . *says nice coment to all oddworld fans*.:) Oh, cool. Ya can see what peaple have whrighten while you're whrighting so ya dont have to go back! Thankz!:D
|
the new forums are cool but i lost my originial name in the move now i'm known as Master not Oddworld Master what happened?
|
Testing... Testing...
EDIT: Hurray! |
New For4ums! Older Members! COOOOL!
THanx AbeBabe, Sydney, & Pilot!
The newer forums are much one of an upgrade! Scanning Forums, Scanning Forums! 100% the BEST! Now we can customize Avatars, YEAH! Syd, could you check your PM's later? Mudokon101... |
Cool!
WOW! Oddworld Forum's second movement. Just tuned and tweaked my profile.... It feels a bit strange, but I will get used to it, I guess.
Where is the "Report this post to Moderators" option for? EDIT: Hey!!! Where did my avatar go to? *goes updating profile* |
I am guessing the 'report this post to a mod' thing is for exactly what it says...to report a post you feel is inapproprate for the topic/forum (like spam)
I was going to say something else now what was it? Oh yeah! Are you going to be making it so we know what topic was last posted to as well as the last poster on the main page? Like it was on the old site? Jus' wonderin'... |
I leave for a couple days and this happens...
Eek! This is scary... All the new icons and features make me feel full of happy goo, but this is gonna take some getting used to... *stumbles around new/improved forums like some kind of drunkard(i.e Dan)*
Ooooooh, aaaah... *takes pictures* *Falls in a hole* eek, now I'm in General Discussion... how odd... *walks up a staircase into fan corner* Wow... Ok, then... *slides down a pole and lands on Tom* Oh, hi there... Can't type much more, I must be off to explore this some more... Edit: Oop, I forgot to say one thing... AB or Syd, could you change my name to Melvin: Squeaking Paramite...? I have decided I like the proper spelling more than squeeking... Thanks in advance...:fuzsmile: |
Re: I leave for a couple days and this happens...

|
Uurgh, Can I change my name? I don't have pinkhair anymore I have another spiffy color now. I love it!
And I'm getting sick of my name....:D I recognize these forums...Trunks forums were like this. |
Oh no, pinky! Don't change, we all love your name... what will we call you if you change? Spiffy? *weeps* *wonders what CWR stands for*
|
Wow Abebabe and Sydney, you guys did a great job changing the foums. I know I haven't been visiting has much as I used to but Im gonna try to visit everyday again.:fuzsmile:
|
CWR- Construction Worker. Pretty odd.
|
dude
the new forum RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D
|
Well i finally got stuff back on track here at the forums, y is every 1 changing there names?? u'r gonna get me all confused
|
These forums are cool Yous did a great job.
Abe Babe could you change my name to Jo please. Once again great job and I love this colour thing. EDIT: Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure I didn't have 529 posts at the old forums I didn't even break 500 at the old forums and how come I am Mudokon poser and not a senior member like all these other people? EDIT 2: Don't worry about that rating thing now everyone else has a oddworld name. |
The main reason we're offering to change people's usernames is because of the chance that the change has given you a username one other than your display name as it was at the UBB. With rare exception (we all knew Rettick as Danny anyway, so no harm there), we should keep our regular names to avoid confusion.
*wonders when the novelty of coloured text will wear off* |
Also i would also say that changing names are a bad thing for new forumers, as they probably wont know who changed, but maybe if you want your name changed you should actually tell everyone by posting. Alcar... |
I tend to agree with Sydney... the only reason we were changing names was because some people lost their displayed names in the move over. I don't want to be changing names for every second person who is bored of their name. It's really just for those who lost their names and want them back, unless you can provide us with good enough reason for the change (i.e. Danny, as he is known by that by everyone anyway, and he's a Mod). And no, "I'm bored of my old one" is not acceptable.
Also, I think I'm going to do a review of those text colors, as we CAN change them! It's just that some people are using things like red and purple that is hard to read on our forums. What is a better idea is to provide only "forum friendly" colors, so that people will be able to read the text easily. BTW... the Oddworld statuses are back! They've been reviewed and changed a bit to reflect the correct Munch's Oddysee statuses. I was glad to find that I could continue to keep the stars system in. :fuzzle: Abe Babe... |
Well my reason is because "abe22" sounds like a boys name and I have been called a "he" and I don't really like it. And I would like more people to call me by My real name "Jo" (well it's actually Joanne but hey.)
|
*congas past from Pilot's belated-burpday party* Oooh, aaahh... *ala Melvin*
Lookit all the pretty colours peoples have been typing in... :D You lot is cheating, you're meant to write in magic colours, ooh! (Ain't I clever, huh?;) No, thought not. Oh well) *reads through posts and finally discovers what envelope-plus-black-dot means* Edit: *squints at her post count* I was sure I was only up to 600 and something. Oh well, never mind, at least I bypassed 666 (anyone else noticed that Pacen and Lantra got stuck at 666 posts? *wonders if there's any reason behind that and gets scared* *checks memberlist and finds out that 26 extra posts have mysteriously been added to Pacen's post count, as he is no longer scary and devil-like(sad, ain't I?)* *does Twilight Zone music*) Yay! *congas out* |
ok
the only thing i disagree with the the use of coloured text, it should only be used for editing....nuff said
|
Hey I like the colored text! Do agree with AB and Syd...we need colors that are more 'forum friendly'.
In case you are wondering where I got that purple color...I used HTML *grin* Spider: *groan* when will she settle on a color? *sigh* Mal: NOOOO!!!!! NOT PINK!!! *runs* Spider: *laughs* |
Sehr gut!
Hey, this was my first move here!
I used to be in a german forum that has the same features like this. And I Love it!!! :D These Forums are the best!° It's really the same like the kacke forum, but I don't visit it anymore because....it was so....german...:fuzsmile: |
A few people got some extra posts on their count when the old forums were imported. Just a small side effect I guess. Oh well, better than people losing their post count.
BTW, Teal and Alector... how do you do those really cool things with the colors... you don't mean to tell me you chose all those colors manually? I saw them at a FF forum once, but never was able to find out how they were done. Abe Babe... |
