Can`t seem to edit my page to get my avator back , used to know people by their avators , now i`m lost .

    Hi DQ,I am feeling the same as I expect a lpot of people are.Even my smilies have vanished and when I pressed go advanced the one I put up on the wakey thread went in the wrong place {frown} I am like you I don't have hours to sit and play around with it and I am not going to even attempt to try Avatars or photos.{eek}

    Your signature comes out with lots of words and numbers at the side of your signature so it looks all messy.

    Good luck and hope you get there in the end {smile}

    Hi Dancing Queen:)

    I know how you feel, when I first saw the new version I thought I would never get my avatar and signature set up as I am in no way a computer genius :eek:

    After a bit of mooching around and pressing this and that I eventually got it set up:D

    You will get there eventually, if you go into the How to...... area I`m sure you will find a great many other G.C members in the same boat and all your questions should be answered there.

    Good luck and the next time you post, hopefully,you will have your avatar and signature set up:thumb:

    Hi all, yes i know how you feel. Let's hope we all get there in the end. I'm not 'up to speed' on this new stuff yet. Hopefully with all the help we get from other users we will get there.

    cheers

    I'll never give up fighting till the end
    If I fall along the way I'll get up and try again
    But never shall I accept the fact of defeat
    I've set goals in life and those I must meet
    But never will I let negativity hold me down
    Those who think positive I keep them around
    Never shall I dwell on things in the past
    Bad times come but never do they last
    I shall never give in to those who are weaker than I
    If I give up now why not lay down and die
    Never Give Up:thumb:

    Okay .....

    Firstly DQ, I have changed your Sig, so it works ...... If people could just change any image tags to [​IMG] at the end ..... It then works .

    Secondly, I understand that the new software will be a 'change' fom what you are used to, but please bear with it and give it a chance, I can guarantee that once you get used to it, it will be simpler than the older software.

    We were always getting requests for different functions to be added, which I always responded that we needed a software change to allow it to happen, well, we now have the top forum software available, and all the functions that have been asked for are available + lots lots more.

    Watch this space.

    :) No don't give up it will come.
    I was disspondant to start with,dont like change at my age.
    I never could do quoting someone else before but it's easy now.
    Couldn't do avatars,couldn't do pictures,couldn't do smilies,......now I can do coloured text as well.
    Hated it to start with but am warming to it now.
    So stick with it.....there are lots of positives..:) :)

    Hi folks.Third attempt at this today having not been here for a while.Me being a bit of a no brainer i sent an e mail (i think)to our kind administrators who have obviously put time and effort into improving our beloved GC,complaining.You`d think i`d just come down from the mountain.Sorry about that.
    I was just a bit shocked and panicked, cause i thought now i`m gonna have to learn evrything all over again.Comfort zone out the window and all that.
    Having somehow fallen into this thread i find i`m not alone and it`s made me feel better.so i will perservere cause i`m not goona let the small writing and no pictures stop me catching up with everyone.Like you say roders, the times they are a changing....
