    Kitty, did you go to the recycle bin and see if they were there? There are computer geeks who might be able to "find" them for you because they say nothing on the computer is ever completely deleted...... Not being a geek, I can't help, but have deleted duplicate photos, and did a couple in error and they were in the recycle bin and I restored them....sometimes you can "restore" your computer to an earlier time (before the delete) and you will find them, but I think you might lose everything that you ADDED since that time...not sure about that one...as I said, I am not a geek.... Just some suggestions.

    And Shoegirl, you DO look like Sandra! Very cute!

    I got my picture on my account page - still working on getting the icon small enough. I'm also going to try to get a better picture - maybe one of me and my husband.

    That is a nice clear picture Janet. Good to see you.

    Good question. When I look at your profile there is a great big empty space where the photo ought to be. If you don't have a photo, there ususally is no space.

    Try going into your profile and clicking on the empty space and hitting the delete key. Save what you did and then try to upload a smaller version of the photo again. It might be too big and the only thing that is showing is some empty space. The first time I tried uploading I got my mouth and chin and nothing else.

    Mary 75,

    Whoops! I was trying to move your question about sending your picture to Nikki from the other discussion topic to this one, and I deleted it. I checked my e-mail, and you didn't send me anything. Click on Nikki's name in blue on one of her posts, and her e-mail is listed there. You can send it directly to her.

    If you click on my name, which for the purposes of this board, is Admin (administator), you will not see a picture there, because I can't figure out how to get it in there! Probably could if I spent a lot of time on it, but I don't have the time or patience.

    Sorry about deleting your question.

    Joan, I would be happy to send you the link you would need to paste in your profile.
    All I would need is for you to email me a photo. :)

    I decided to add my most recent picture for my icon, though I prefer the one from the cruise where I'm fancied up and 35 pounds lighter! <grin> I'm hoping to take those pounds off before the February 2009 Caregiver Cruise!
  4.  
    The icon shows in "my account" but didn't appear here.....more work....I'm trying again..

    I hope more people will add their pictures!

    chris, forget about deleting anything. Just paste the URL for your picture over the top of whatever you currently have in the space. Make sure that there are no [IMG] on either side of the URL. And remember to SAVE before you change the page.

    Try it and get back to us when you finish.

    Thank you, Starling...there was an [IMG] in mine....

    Sorry I haven't been on much. Been having a few minor issues
    and getting some tests done......

    Chris I sent your link, tested it and it worked great :)

    Jenene great picture, glad you worked it out

    Mary, let me know what you are trying to do? Maybe I can help

    HINTS

    If you are using tinypicture, copy the "direct link for layout"
    then there is no need to worry about removing unwanted items.

    Also, some of the pictures I have received.. the problem was the
    picture WAS there, but the way it was cropped left this huge white
    area. So when tinypictures uploaded the picture, it was mostly just white
    hence... the big blank white space *wink

    It is best to crop your image... no white space around it... before you
    try to upload.

    Don't forget to scroll down and click save :)

    TADA lol

    Morning LMohr
    I belong to the Red Hat Society for the last 5 years and a better support group I've never had (present company excluded) They are my rock. I love my red hats I won't tell you but once that I am obsessive compulsive about creating a new hat for each new function and I love giving them away. My hats give me comfort and sometimes I wear them to work.

    Chris, here's what to do:

    Go to your personal account (here on Spouse)

    Choose "personal information" from the Account Options on the left

    There is a box for "Account picture"

    Erase anything that's there, then paste in:

    http://i38.tinypic.com/mjs5k8.jpg


    Hit the "save" button at the bottom

    Ok, Sunshyne, I did that. thanks for the complement. It was taken in Poland when we went on a Baltic cruise, probably 2 yrs ago, but I couldn't find any newer, I'm the photog when we travel, so there are never photos of me. (grin)

    Chris, your picture now shows up in your personal account. Partial success!!! at least everyone else can see what you look like now.

    This version is too big to use as the "icon" which would show up in all your posts. Let me see if I can figure out how to fix that from what Nikki has posted in the past... or maybe Nikki can use the http://i38.tinypic.com/mjs5k8.jpg to get a thumbnail for you.

    Well, Chris, played around a bit, and can't figure out how to get it to shrink any further. So the best I could do was to crop it, to just your face:

    If you go to your personal account here on Spouse,

    Choose "personal information" from the Account Options on the left

    There is a box for "icon" (It's just below the box for "Account picture")

    Erase anything that's there, then paste in:

    http://i37.tinypic.com/wkn6g6.jpg


    Hit the "save" button at the bottom

    At least you'll be visible. I can't use the resizing software, it's for PC only and I have a Mac.

    Maybe Nikki will come along and resize it for you, from

    http://i38.tinypic.com/mjs5k8.jpg

    Hi Chris, sorry about that... didn't know you wanted the icon as well.

    All you do is the same thing... but you have to shrink the picture
    WAY down, much smaller than the thumbnail. At any rate,,,I played
    with the size till it worked. I tried it on my account, looks good :)

    Here is your link. http://i35.tinypic.com/1zw2cf8.jpg

    post for a bit until I get the levels back to a more manageable roar.

    I will be more than happy to help anyone when I feel better. Just send me
    your photo and what you would like, profile photo, icon photo, or both.

    Hope you all have a peaceful evening!

    Chris R, when I did small pic, I used photo editing software and cropped my larger pic of my head, resized it to 32 x 32 pixels and saved smaller pic. Then when I was doing 'icon' on tinypic.com, I used that pic and pasted url to icon area in my account. I therefor had 2 different pics used on tinypic.com. Hope this helps.

    I have a suggestion that would be of interest to all of us. You can put more personal information on your account page. If you click on my name you will see I have entered my DH age, diagnosis and his profession or work (was). I have trouble remembering if someone's spouse has FTL or AD, age or whatever else you want to share. Click on your account then over to the left of the page, personal information and at the bottom of the list there is a place to make more entries.
