thank you for the suggestion i have the colon and ) there at beginning so now will see how that works.

there is a thread that is repeating itself on all my messages..
its getting frustrating...... sorry to be an inconvenience. but I cant even find the original thread that will allow me to delete the stupid thing.

Nate when i posted that i didnt have an avatar this is what I got
[IMG][/IMG]

and when I went to post all that was there was a signature which is not what I wanted

here is the avatar that I wante d and got now finally but when it said invalid file and didnt show up thats when i wrote that thread.

thanks for your patience all of you I just dont have anywhere else to try to fix this problem..

This is the only thing that I could think of after everything else.
If I have broken any rules sorry. I just signed in as quastjackie
to see if the smiles work under a new name. then I can then go back to my puter.

no the smilies dont work either. so please delete this signon if you can

Gary says send him an email with your avatar and he will try to put it in for you.

Big Blues thank you for that info.

i did get the avatar in there not sure as I said .
the part I took a screen shot of shows it as being invalid. but in the end it posted. just took a while to appear .

I still dont have the smilies unless I actually put the : ) in by hand
as where before all you had to do was click on them with your cursor and they appeared.

Yes contact by PM to Gary [WingedVictory] - that's how I got my problems sorted out. It did take a few tries but it worked.

So sorry to hear you're having such a frustrating time of it.
