Title: Changing Name & Profile Pic/Sig
Post by: ViceVersa on July 21, 2015, 05:59:47 pm
Ok, so I want to change my name that's displayed to everyone, I don't want it to be Vince anymore, and I'm not sure if that is changeable or not. Also I would like to know how to add a profile picture and signature, Thank you.~

Press "profile" and then press "forum profile information". You have options to change your profile display that way.

to change your display name, press "account related settings" in "profile".

To change your forum nickname, go to your profile>>Account Related Settings>>Name. Type in what you want people to see your name as. To add a picture to your profile, go to your profile>>Forum Profile Information>>then either upload your photo or specify your avatar by URL. You can also add words to your avatar by typing into "personal text." To change your signature, go to the Forum Profile Information, and scroll down to where it says "Signature." If you'd like to add a picture in your signature, you can copy the URL code and paste it into the blank box. (If you have a picture in your computer, that doesn't enable you to copy the url, you can upload the picture to someplace like TinyPic or Photobucket, copy the URL, and paste it into your signature.) Be sure to type in your password and save your settings if you want to save the changes to your account. Hope this clears everything up. c:

If it's a picture that's stored in your computer files, you'll need to upload the photo to TinyPic, Photobucket, or some other site. Both sites will offer to copy the URL code, and once you do so, you're free to paste it into the signature box. Here's a link to both: http://tinypic.com/ (http://tinypic.com/) or http://photobucket.com/ (http://photobucket.com/)
