i am definitely techno-impaired.

i need a tutorial on making myself an avatar. don't know the first thing about pixels, megabytes or anything else, except that you need a digital camera and now i have one.

i process new information slowly, but when i do, it's locked in there, so have patience, please. i probably need a numbered step-by-step.

any brave takers out there?

I don't know how either but am anxiously waiting a reply to this as well. Just thought I'd let you know you're not alone!

Whhat software came with your camera? For something as tiny as an avatar, you need low reolution and low size.

Your camera will have settings to provide we-quality photos, or you can take higher resolution pictures and edit them. If you run into problems, pm me.

i have a nikon camera. i can download with nikon transfer or iphoto. or i can scan and download. i use a mac.

the rest of what you said is a foreign language to me.

Okay ya'll, what's an avatar. I've seen that word often but don't know what it is :?: Please explain :roll:

an avatar is the picture by your login name.. it appears on the left of the box when you type a reply ot make a post

Frankly, I had some pictures in the computer and picked one to use. (My Doberman, Mahana.)

Your Dobie makes a cute picture.
