Be patient.. I'm sure they're still working on the transition and getting everything back up and running. There is still much configuration that needs to happen.

Brad doesn't even have his sponsers' banner ads up yet. I'm sure it's all coming.

I understand

I know Brad has been working hard to keep this site up. It is still the best site out there as I am reminded everytime we go down and I am sent surfing.

I do hate that we lost all of our prior history files and such.

Brad,

hang in there and we will also

I've noticed that the new requirements for the avatars file size has diminished. I had to resave in Photoshop as a medium sized jpg. Make sure your file size is below the 200k max. Good luck...

My old avatar is too large and I reduced the size and it won't take it. It says it's greater than the max allowed.

Hey guys, Avatars are working now but you need to go into your user options to turn their display on. There's a bunch of other settings that you need to turn on too like PM's and Signatures.

Well, they changed the maximum size of the avatars and now I'm good!

Can someone kindy help me to figure out how to fix my signature below. It's all incrypted, like it won't accept the hyperlinks that show my mods anymore. Any help would me much appreciated.

It doesn't look like it's accepting HTML. Try recreating it by only using the options in the creation section.

The tools don't allow for text to show... it'll have a link, but show the full link address. You can't have the text:

"My CarDomain Page"

You have:

"http:\\my.cardomain.com\user\card12345"

There, I fixed it. You have to use the following code:

(url=http://whatever)ENTER TEXT(/url)

Replace the () with []

Go to the 'User CP' and there should be a section to the left that says something about adding an avatar.
