You can now easily update your image on your "User Options" page. You can get to this page by clicking on your username at the bottom of this page, or by clicking on the "Preferences page" link on your User page.

Just browse for your image on your hard drive, and then Submit. You don't have to worry about formatting the image to be grayscale, or resizing. You may want to use an image editing program to crop off the parts of the image you don't want. Currently it only works with JPG and PNG file types. Enjoy : ).

Dean, I was able to change my photo but a mistake during my first try replaced my description with this one:

There appears to be a problem with your post. It's possible your security option on your browser are interfering with the normal operation of this feature.

Now I am having trouble updating my description.  Is anyone else having this problem?

Luke, thanks for bringing this to my attention. I've restored everyone's (your, Ethan's, and Rodney's) descriptions.

Dean-
Thanks for giving us the ability to change our picture.  And now, as I'm always a nag, what about those who do not already have a picture posted.  My wife sent hers in to admin about three weeks ago and it never got posted, and I noticed on her profile there is no link for adding a picture.

Dean:

On the edit profile page I cannot see a way to change the picture. The "Picture" line lists the jpeg filename but this is just a fixed field. Is this a limitation of using the Firefox browser (version 1.5) on my Solaris system?

There is one addition I would like to see added to the main page. At the bottom, where the "unread messages" are listed, I would like to see a button after each topic title that could be used to mark that thread as read. I would also like to see a button that could be used to mark the entire forum as read. This would save a lot of time having to go to the Forum page to accomplish this.

Of lesser importance, but something that would be nice, would be another button displayed next to each topic title that could be used to "unsubscribe" from that thread so that it was no longer displayed in your list of unread messages. This would make it easier to focus on the topics of interest.

There must be a better forum to post these technical issues. Don't hesitate to point me towards the proper location.

Thanks,

Jody, thank you very much. She should be able to do it now.

Jeff, can you RoR mail me if it still doesn't work? I wonder if you tried it when I temporarily reverted to the old page while I was making a fix. Can you right click on the page, choose "View Page Source", CTRL-F (to search) and search for "input type='file' name='portrait'"?

As for the rest of your comments... I'm going to look into adding a bug tracking system to the site, where we can discuss these sorts of things.
