I'm still new at this site, does anyone know how to get the cute icons or pics of their piggies to show up under their username? Also, what does it mean to have awards? The amount of posts you do?
Still slightly confused,
Hubert's Mommy

This is the section in the Rules and Regulations about posting pics. I hope it helps you get started. wheekers.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=feedback&action=display&thread=6185Once you have a pigture to post, go to your profile and click on "Modify Profile". Go down to the "Personal Information" section and you'll see a section on posting avatars. Follow the directions, and you can post the pic as an avatar and post a saying underneath. Good luck!!! |

Once a year we have a ''Wheeker awards'' thing where everyone votes on who's the funniest, member, nicest member, most easily confused, ect. If you get first, second, or third most votes on any of these, you get a little ribbon next to your username or something similar.

That sounds so cute!!! I think it'd be hard to pick whose nicest because from my experience everyone is really friendly here. Gogo what does your "W" ribbon mean?
This is good to know because my ex made my icon for me and I'll want to change it soon so I can add my precious Lola's face to it as well.

I'm just moving this thread to Forum News, Rules, and Feedback.
The link 3Piggles posted is very helpful. Of course let us know if you need anymore help!

GIMP is also very good at resizing photos (don't know about Ifranview, I've never even heard of it til now). Also, I love it because unlike MS Paint, you can choose whether to save a picture as .JPEG with 100% or less quality if you wish; and the picture still uses up less space in the end.

Misspiggy,
The W stands for Wheekers, I guess. I got this one because I got voted onto the "It wouldn't be wheekers without..." list. I've only been on here for one wheekers awards, but they apparently happen right at the end of the year and the results are released on new years day.

I feel dumb because only after this was moved did i ever really notice ALL these other boards. LOL I've been programmed to just go to Cavy Care and then I look at peoples pics under Meet The Pigs ..... I never even looked at this, I dont know why. Also I didnt know people had "blogs" under Meet The Pigs, when I would look at pics I would always think "why in the heck are peopel still responding to threads from 2008" ... duuuuuuuh NOW I KNOW.
I'm addicted to this site, I check it morning and night and sometimes on my lunch break at work. LOL. I read every post in Cavy Care. Now I can start working on the other boards lol.

If you have lost a few marbles like me, you are most likely to win a few annual awards out of compassion  |
