    Here is how to change your avatar picture, @Harold Pollner .
    1. Click on your name at the top right of the page.
    2. This will open up a box with several options. Look down the left side and you will see “avatar” as one of the options. Click on that.
    3. This will take you to a page to upload a file from your computer pictures file. Choose that, and then you can upload whatever picture that you want to use from your photos as your avatar.

    This is how it looks on my iPad, but it should look very similar to this on your computer, Hal. I have circled what you need to do . Good luck with this ! 2046A441-663D-46AD-8A17-90FF385E1F56.jpeg

    Hal, put your little finger pointer thingy on your name. A dropdown thingy will appear. Click on the word "AVATAR". Click on that and you should be able to upload a picture from your computer.

    Yes, it's pretty much the same in a web browser.

    Make sure you have an image to use as an avatar. When you click "Choose file" you will need to know where on your computer your image file is. If you have it on your desktop, that's probably easier. Once you find the file, click it, and then click the "Okay" button, and you should be good.

    It should allow you to choose from one of the photos in your computer. An alternate idea, is that @Ken Anderson can use one of the photos you have posted before and set that as your avatar if you are unable to upload one from your computer, Hal. If you want to do that , then just say so, and you can have a new avatar right away.

    How about this one of you and your beloved dogs and kitties ?

    Then Hal can just change it later once he locates his picture files.
