Some of you have far more interesting names than me. I want to create a nickname for myself, but I don't seem to have the option in the profile dialog box. Is my nickname also my user name and do I have to ask someone to do this for me?

Hi Joanne
you put your "nickname" in the "user name" part of your profile
hope this helps

Joanne if you want to change your user name, you have to ask one of the admins to do this for you, like me or John or Roger.
Not sure if this is what you mean?

Hi Blott
Yes, that is what I was wondering - whether an administrator had to change my user name. Can I do that here or do you require a DM? I would like it changed to 'bookworm' please.
Many thanks
Joanne
I can do that for you. :) Hi Bookworm. [msnwink]

I just replied to this message and my reply seems to have disappeared off the face of the forum!
What I said was 'Wow, that was quick! Thank you very much. Just one more question - I added an avatar to my profile earlier today but it is not appearing next to my messages. Any ideas?'
Many thanks

You've linked in your profile to its actual place on the internet and most websites won't let you do that as it uses up their bandwidth.
You need to right click and copy the avatar you've chosen, save it to your PC and then upload it as a file attachment to a post. Then right click and copy again to your profile.

Hi Blott
I have saved it to my pc and posted it as an attachment and now I can see it in the body of my previous reply, but when I try to copy it to my profile, nothing appears there.
Sorry to be a pain
