How did you all get picture icons under your names when you post?

Members don't see this ad.
 
Go to your profile and select a Avatar picture (you'll have a selection of 100 pictures or so to pick from) :cool:

Ok- figured it out... Thanks!!
 
hey yah-e and cinnamon~

how did you guys get the really cool icons that weren't on the list??? please tell!
 
I agree with Wasabi007 - do tell how to make the spiffed up icons! :clap:
 
Wasabi,

When you go into your profile and click on "SELECT A DIFFERENT AVATAR IMAGE" an Avatar window will pop open with images to select from. To select your own custom image, go to the bottom of the Avatar pop up window and use the "USE CUSTOM URL" address bar or "SET URL" to select your own image that's not on the list provided by SDN! Have fun!
 
Thanks!!! <img border="0" alt="[Lovey]" title="" src="graemlins/lovey.gif" />

Star Girl,

You've already stole my heart, what else do you want? :confused: :wink: :D

i love my image..isn't it wicked?
 
which one do you guys like better...
 
sonigee-
you're images aren't showing up!
 
so many icons, and i can only chose 1. Just checking to see if this one would be large enough <img src="http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:71xQhUiYXnEC:www.iupui.edu/~dentlib/logo.gif" alt=" - " />
 
<img src="http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:0lkEqaZJHyAC:www.meetmeinpa.com/images/handicap_icon.gif" alt=" - " />
 
where'd you guys find the school icons? i am looking for NYU dental:)
 
1. go to google (www.google.com)
2. click on images
3. type in your school name (ie. New York University or University of Michigan)
4. click search
it will pull up iamges (thousands of them) that pertain to your school
5. right click on the image u want
6 click on Properties
7. copy the Address
8. paste the address as your Avatar <img src="http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:qt5xZQOxbPwC:monod.biomath.nyu.edu/~hgan/liberty.jpg" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:FwgGBs2XJ1MC:www3.ca.com/images/events/chip_nyu.gif" alt=" - " />
 
hey steiner...thanx for the 411 on that site..i found an image i liked:)
 
guess that one was too lite...oh well...heres my second fave
 
Okay, I'm having a heck of a time pasting this. I don't see anywhere in my avatar list or the blank frame that will let me import or paste something. Could it be my Mac??? :p
 
deciduous,

After you've gone to the screen where you can select your avatar image, you'll want to use the "custom URL" field at the bottom of that screen to type/paste in the URL of the image you want.

- G (an avid Mac user) :)
 
yay steiner!! thanks for the detail explanation on how to import an image!! :clap: i finally found one that i like~ :D
 
maybe i'm just really dense...but i really don't see where i can put my custom URL in my profile. could you explain one more time for the not-so-tech-savvy? thanks!
 
1) go to "my profile"
2) change or update your profile
3) message icon...go to "change avatar image"
4) then at the way bottom of the page...just to the bottom left of where you can click "next" is a place you can type in your url
5) click "set url"

you should be able to see your image displayed...hope this helps!
 
Sonrisa Dentista and I obviously don't have the available URL field. I don't know why, but I've been back there a countless number of times looking for it. It's just not there <img border="0" alt="[Pity]" title="" src="graemlins/pity.gif" />
 
I don't have the url link either- maybe you need to be a senior member or something- not a 'member' like me!
 
how do you put up your own icon...what do you type in for your own URL???? if it's a pic on desktop for example?
 
Must be for people with a lot of posts because I don't have that option either.
 
i like my avatar... its very pretty..
 
oh no.. its not showing up..
 
There's definitely not an option for rookie members like myself. If I did have that URL link, I'd definitely go with Steiner's. I once asked my buddy who is #1 at SIU what he thought when he gets a patient with a brutal set of teeth. He thinks:

"You poor bastard"

---This coming from a future Endo. hahaha. Still the same guy as he was in my fraternity years ago...

Just follow the easy steps in my above post.

step 8: go to your profile

step 12:SET URL

PI guy: what school are u heading to, and which one is your roomate going to ???
 
word on the street is we need 50 posts to have our own custom icon. sucks to be a newbie. <img border="0" alt="[Pity]" title="" src="graemlins/pity.gif" />
 
Steiner..is your avatar a picture of amelogensis imperfecta? just curious :D
 
Okay, in case you haven't watched my ridiculous thread, 50 posts does get you the opportunity to import your own image. :)

Now, I could be wrong. But I don't think Steiner's pic. is amelogenesis imperfecta. I think you usually get a "peg-tooth" appearance with that disorder--the teeth look smaller and peg-shaped and have an amount of space between them. Remember, I could be wrong about that. It looks to me like a good ol' case of severe periodontitis and other related occurrences. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
 
very good deciduous : its severe perio, in fact its ANUG (acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis) its not Amelogensis Imperfecta, b/c there is enamel formation.
 
testing my avatar...
 
D~
how do you import your own image? does it have to be on a website or something first??
