I wanted to highlight a couple new features that we've added to the User Profiles.

1) Profile Picture
Larger than an avatar, this is a chance for you to post a real pic of yourself for all FC members to see. Please, no nudity (Luc!).

2) Instant Message
We now have fields for some of the most popular IM clients. Anyone interested in communicating via IM please list your user names in the appropriate fields.

Welcome to the new FlowerChat!

Ok, how do you change your avatar now if you want to put your own in there or your picture? I searched high and low and I can't see a browse anywhere. Help! :dunno: Thanks!

Also, where is the "view new posts" link? Or isn't there one now?

Though I am with you on the avatar thing. I don't know how to change it to a custom one either. Custom avatars may have been cut off when he upgraded.
User CP

Menu on the left side, under Settings & Options, choose Edit Avatar.

Customer Avatar option is below the listing of Standard Avatars.
 
Also, I should note that the profile picture is separate from your avatar!

I still don't see it.

Also, when you use the quick reply, why does the cursor end up on top of the quoted message? Shouldn't it be afer the quote or are we top posting? Is there a setting you can change?

George, for quotes I press the Quick Reply Icon next to the person I want to quote or respond to(That is the icon that looks like a quill and paper that is square)

Then I check "Quote message in reply" below the message box and then type my message and press post quick reply.

Makes it real easy
 
Go to first UNread

Seems that I no longer have the "go to first unread" button...

Is this not avaiable when using the Hyper Threading option ?

No, it's only for the Linear mode. Unread posts will be bolded in the Hybrid and Threaded modes.

Well, I succeeded in changing my avatar, but I was trying to put in a profile picture. I found one that fit and it showed up in the profile picture page, but will not upload to replace avatar. :dunno: Help please! Thanks!
 
Ok, I understand. Something that was said made me think the avatar space was for a picure if desired. I see now! It's hard to find a picture that's not too big. I settled for a pic of a motorycle like ours. Ours is all black though. All the pics I tried were just too big.
 
I wonder...

How many folks have the avatar option turned off ??

I do...pages are smaller, and load much quicker...
 
I don't but I may - that avatar of GFLORAL gives me a migraine. Literally.
