    Sick of seeing an anonymous "head" and decided to publish an Avatar.

    Searched and searched but can't see how its done.

    My avatar (had to look that up) is nothing clever just a .png picture of my favourite general - polite suggestions on what I should do from you very clever people welcome.

    Click on your name at the top of the page. Click my Settings. Click My Photo. This should allow you to change.

    You have two options scipio.

    What I want to know is how the heck Invision captured my avatar from a Hang Glding Forum and plunked it into here.
    There is ABSOLUTELY no way I did that. My avatar here is / was my pic of my Dad.
    (This has happened to me elsewhere. Eg: Skype captured my avatar from a women's competition forum. How, I have no idea...)

    What is really bizarre is I went into my Profile "Manage Attachments" folder
    Guess what I found?

    Four pages of Avatars I have used at one time or another on forums all over the world.
    Other than a handful of specific attachments (pics) I uploaded here into posts, I Not once, ever, have I ever posted ANY of the rest of these up onto WW2f.com - NEVER.

    That's what is known in the help desk vernacular as "a feature". :airquotes:
