I wish that I could be more of a help ... I haven't changed my av for years It's either a URL or a http link to a (resized) av in Photobucket that worked for me. btw - I used Paint (standard program with Windows) to make the photo smaller to fit the Profile standards.

Sometimes you have to raise a little Cain to get a certain poster to stop bothering you. I should have done it differently, though,more " behind the scenes" That's what I'll do if it happens again. Not raise a fuss "in public" I've bothered a certain poster myself by just about always disagreeing with that member. Decided to keep certain opinions to myself and also not take the bait when obviously they want to bring out a bit of my fightin' Irish, start a fight in some way by deliberately posting things they (often erroneously) believe will elicit ire. That's my pet Net peeve, when someone tries to bother me, because they're hostile or bored or whatnot. That makes me lose some of my faith in humanity when people act out of gratuitous malice.

Agreed--I often wonder how much of the fights and such that happen here and in other forums is because of misinterpretation, not being able to see facial expression, body language, etc. I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said about the internet for decades, mind you, but when you think of many fights we have with people we're in the same room with, and we can see and hear all of those things, multiply that times a hundred for internet fights.

So true, it's even easier to be misunderstood on the Net, than in person because you can't give out certain "clues" and hints through facial expression, body language, etc. It's easy to say or write something and it comes out wrong. Not like you really meant it. It's all garbled and convoluted and gets misinterpreted, especially if you're not using your "first language" Also some are touchy, quick to take offense. Too defensive. I'm not the only one that's got that disease!

Again, all true. However, despite what language one is writing in, whether it's one's "first language" or not, sometimes folks make horribly offensive statements. That seems to happen much more on the internet than in person, as the internet offers anonymity.

I'll be happy to put in a good word for you, as I'm on the board's "Nice List".
Thanks....I'm counting on you.
So, what would you like as an avatar, you and Paul hugging? You playing drums for the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show?
Actually, a friend here made an avatar of Paul holding a sign with my picture on it....still have it
Very cool! When I get you off the board's "Naughty List" you should use that as your avatar.
Got it to work......doubt it will stay though...the little red X will be back soon
