No idea.

You should, if you have more than 10 posts and 24 hours since registration.

Go to Edit Avatar option in your UserCP.

[lunulae]

yes, i agree with you.

i still can't change my avatar. this is all it says, when i go to 'edit avatar':
Your Current Avatar No Avatar Specified Avatars are small graphics that are displayed under your username whenever you post.
Do not use an avatar
Note: if you have a custom avatar selecting this option will delete it.

You must tick the option "Use Custom Avatar", and then, below it you are given two further options:

Option 1 - Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website
In the box you must enter the full path to an image (including its filemane and extension). E.g.:
http://www.anysite.com/directory/imagefilename.jpg

Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer
If you have the image in your computer, click on the button to the right of the box (Examine), and this will open a view of your computer directory to search for the image.


After choosing one of the two above options, click on the Save Changes button.

It's in the Edit Avatar window.

See in this screenshot. You have to options that you can tick "Do not use an avatar" or "Use Custom Avatar".

[lunulae]

the option suddenly appeared now, and so did the private message-system. thanks anyways.

[Menydh]

That's probably because you just passed 24 hours since you registered.

[lunulae]

nah, it's days ago since i registered. or do you mean it registered the 10 posts?

[Menydh]

No, since the moment of registration. That's strange. It may have to do with something that I have installed these days, that has messed up the system.
