Under the forum header, see the links that include Profile. Tap that.
The window opens to your avatar and name, etc. but looking on the far right, see the Edit Profile button:
• To add your favorite avatar, either upload an image (no bigget than 150px square, it will be sized to fit!), or link in from a storsge site if you'd rather. Don't miss hitting the Save Avatar button.
Personal, Settings, and Privacy are the ones you want to check:
• Personal is where you change your e-mail and password! If you forget your password, there is a standard :Forgot..." link to help you re-set it. I am not able to work with passwords!
• Privacy is where you can set some interesting options. And FYI: Guests can read forum pages, so click "Members Only" options when you see them.
- Under Personal, see Most Recent Status! In another forum, everyone uses that to show their location. You decide.
- Display Name: note: whatever name you registered new here (a one-word name), if you had a TR name in old Backpacker or even a prior version with mangled versions of "imported" names, or some other strange changes, you are free to actually decide on the name to display. Capped letters and spaces are perfectly acceptable.
• Avatars must be uploaded from your desktop! Strangely, linking is not so easy, uploading is a snap! Make an avatar of about 200 pixels aquare, upload it, set it and save it.
I hope that covered it, but PM me if you need help.
