WOO HOO! Granny Frecklebee puts her foot down (with shovel attached) and settles this once and for all! BUT WAIT! That'll only prove what happens (or doesn't happen) when you max out a shovel. It won't prove whether it's me or Bear with the faulty memory of what he did or didn't say about the whole shovel maxing incident.  But then again, maybe I don't wanna know?
On the pix (and I apologize if I'm being too detailed, I just know it took me forever to figure this out on the first forum I joined, but I'm not trying to insult your picture-taking-posting intelligence): 1. Take a nice pix of your toon using the F9 key. You can use the tab key to view her from the front, but you'll get an even better pix if you have someone else take it of your toon, nice and close up, and then they can e-mail it to you (or they can put it up on a free picture-hosting website like photobucket.com and you can get it from there). 2. To find Toontown pix on your computer after you've taken them, open Windows Explorer and look under c:\Program Files\Disney\DisneyOnline\Toontown. If you're like me, there'll be about 3 billion pix on there that you don't even remember taking (BUT I have no baby pix of Midnight Rose--no clue why not). Doubleclick on the pix you want to use as your avatar. It should open up with whatever photo software you have installed on your puter. You will have to size that picture down to no more than 150 pixels by 150 pixels, and 82 KB. Every software's different on doing this - just dink around with it and see. There should be something called "size" or "resize" and you might want to "crop" your picture so it's just your toon's face--up to you. You might have to open some other picture software that's on your puter and then open this picture using that software instead of using Windows Explorer. Whatever works. 3. When you got the picture how you like it (and it's small enough), then save it somewhere on your puter where you can actually find it again (desktop works good for that). 4. Go to toontownfriends.com. Click on the blue "Toonfile" that's up sort of near the top of the page. Now in there you can do all sorts of stuff (lie about your birthday, put stuff in your "signature"), but the avatar stuff is down near the bottom. To the right of "Upload avatar from your machine" click on Browse and find that pix you just saved on your puter. Click "submit" down at the bottom. It should say "Your toonfile has been updated." If it doesn't say that, then your picture is still too big, etc. _________________ Fear--Until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore, you will not know the terror of being forever lost at sea.
