What do you refer to as the "home page"? 2. Can't find an "My Account" tab anywhere on this forums? .... HELP Quote Link to comment
+Gitchee-Gummee Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) 1] The "Home Page" is the opening page of geocaching.com (not the forums); 2] Find "My Account" "Account Details" within the "Your Profile" tab near the top left of the Home Page (above). The opening page of geocaching.com has changed (a few times) since those quoted instructions were written. Edited September 11, 2013 by Gitchee-Gummee Quote Link to comment

+FourFunKiwis Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I really don't know where I'm going wrong! Even with the corrected labels above it won't work for me Quote Link to comment
+FourFunKiwis Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I have followed every variation of the instructions I can find and I still can't get it to work. Sad face Quote Link to comment

+lel_h Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) first attempt.... ETA: back to the drawing board. No siggy and no image. Edited January 30, 2014 by lel_h Quote Link to comment
+lel_h Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) second attempt third attempt. ETA: Hmmmm. More work to do. Edited January 30, 2014 by lel_h Quote Link to comment
+lel_h Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) Okay, I've uploaded photos, chosen them for avatar and profile pictures, saved the changes, removed them again, picked them again, signed out of the forums, and signed back in. Let's see if it works this time around. This is the process to get a picture to appear along with my user name, right? ETA: Still not working. Oh well - back to geocaching!

+lel_h Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) One last test. ETA: Okay, obviously I'm not understanding the instructions on how to make my avatar photo appear on the forums. The layout of the website has changed since the original instructions on this thread were created, but I've tried to mimic, as best as I can, the steps in the first post. On the Geocaching.com website I've deselected (removed) the avatar photo, saved changes, logged out, logged back in, reselected the photo, saved changes, logged out, and logged back in. I've logged out of Groundspeak's website in the process and logged back in. Haven't been able to get the picture to appear. On a related issue, my chose siggy isn't appearing either. Hopefully someone can help me out. Thanks! Edited February 3, 2014 by lel_h Quote Link to comment
