Hi everybody, I'm Ethel and I don't like my new name. How can I change it? Thanks.
Ethel,
It's not possible for a member to change their name. Post what name you want and I'll change it for you.
Hi Craven, I guess I'll just stick with Ethel. Although, maybe I'll give it a little thought and get back to you later or tomorrow. Thanks.
So do you want me to change it to ethel now? Or do you want me to wait till tomorrow? If I don't see your post tomorrow PM me or something.
OK Craven. I'll be Lola. How's that? Thanks for changing it for me. I should be more premeditated. Jane/ex-Ethel
Hi Lola! Didn't know you were a showgirl.
Hi Sozobe, I'm a showgirl from way back. Gotta show those legs if you're gonna dance. What is your avatar? I can't quite make it out. Good to see ya.
Ms Lola
As seemly a set of seams as I've seen. Please feel free to call on the Royal Canadian Mounted should ever misadventure befall you. My spurs are at the ready.
My avatar is a biswo bazra, the thunderbolt that destroys ignorance! Kazoom!
I'm TRYING (and trying and trying) to make a Rosie the Riveter avatar, but my efforts are all either WAAAAAAAAY too big or WAAAAAAAAY too fuzzy. Grr.
(This is my starting point, anyway - I cropped, cloned out the "we can do it", but still can't get it below say 25K. Needs to be 6.)

That's hilarious. You gotta get her!
Sozobe, I already have that avatar. It might already be in the gallery. If not I'll add the feminist collection to the gallery.
Oh boy oh boy oh boy...!
I'm STILL wrestling with it. I'd kind of hoped to excise the "We Can Do It", but I'll takes what I can gets.
This is the closest I've come:
Still 31K..
Realized it was actually THREE K. I'm such a doofus sometimes.
I checked and no I hadn't added that avatar yet.
Thing is, I have a couple hundred avatars on my puter to be added, they are much better than the ones we have. But I don't have time to organize them all.
If someone knows how to FTP and wants to organize the avatars I can get them up soon but if not it will have to wait.
As to your avatar soz, I have about 5 or so versions of that one.
My cobbled-together one will do fine until you have time to put up the Rosies. Is there a source you could direct me to on the web, where you got them so I can just collect one from there directly? I did a Google search (not very extensive) and didn't come up with much.
I have no idea where I got them (I started collecting them months ago and have taken them from 20+ free avatar sites).
But I have a plan.
If you sign up for an account here:

And if you PM me the password I'll upload about a 1000 and you can choose from there.
I can FTP
Oh Boy...did I just volunteer for something?
Well only if you want to organize a bunch of avatars into folders. It's a pretty big job!
IF that's no trouble for you (the uploading), fantastic!
IF it is, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!
PM on its way...
