How do I make my profile picture show?

**timka1** · September 5th, 2006

When I go into the "User CP" option (above) I can set up a picture and save changes but it doesn't show when I make a post.

Am I missing out an essential step or does it take a while to kick in?

EDIT: Now working because it is Avatar that shows on posts not Profile Picture...

it shows in this thread.

i think the forum software chaches the various threads and does not regenerate them completly each time. thats why your sig maybe doesnt show immediately in every post.

Really? Can you see a picture next to timka1 in this thread ? I can't!

I cant see it, though you might be setting the wrong picture. There is a profile picture and an avatar, at least I think thats what they are called. You may have set the wrong one.

I have set my profile picture and signature. Signature is now showing but picture isn't.

Should I be setting avatar instead?

EDIT: Yes the Avatar is the Answer! Not sure when profile picture is relevant...
