Avatars are awesome!

[wildflower810]

Avatars (the little picture next to your name) are sooo helpful in telling people apart and getting to know the new gals. You can upload one under the "profile" tab. It would be great to have a board full of cute or funny pictures rather than gray ghost faces.

what, ghost faces are not good enough for you?!

I love how big they are on this site too! I can actually see what they are pictures of!

Only if everyone changes their username to the same thing as well!

This drove me nuts on TB. I enjoyed participating with you guys but I had such a hard time getting to know individual posters with that format. I'm so glad people are wandering over here!

I have a picture when I look at my profile, but for some reason it doesn't show up

[kathetravis]

I just changed mine. Hopefully it works

[jax1182014]

so creeped out by the grey face and blue background. working on changing it!

[songbirdsinging55]

I have a pic but it isn't showing when I post.

Make sure you are changing it on the desktop version of PB and not the app or mobile version.

Edit: if you only change it on the app it doesn't show up.

I actually find the default pictures really creepy, so I will be very happy once people settle in and change their avatars.

Mine is my face, is that creepy? Lol

Lol! No yours is cool!

On the desktop you also have to click ans make the new picture the "default" picture. Otherwise it'll keep using the creepy gray guy.

I promise to add one as soon as I'm in front of a computer. Not that I am super memorable but would folks recognize me if I changed mine? Is my username distinct enough or should I use the same avatar I had on the bump? (My first world problem this evening)

I think you're recognizable by name. I used a different avatar here because mine was a pic of my bump at 20some weeks when I joined... And while cute it wasn't very accurate anymore.

Aha that explains why mine don' t want to work! Gotta get onto a pc!

[wildblue]

Going to put mine up soon! I have been using mobile for everything the past few days.

[spiraltheory]

I promise to change mine when I'm at a computer. I'm trapped under a baby!

[wolkiesa]

Ok lets see if this worked!!

The default avatar reminds me of coneheads.

I think I have got this almost figured out! Thanks for the info.
