    The only things that I know how to do on a computer is turn it on, play music, annoy you, and check e-mail.

 

    I am computer illiterate and proud of it!! :D

    Considering the little I know, if I'm not illiterate I'm the next thing to it. *wincing as he says this* any suggestions on a new avatar-whatsit?

Just get a 100x100 pixel picture, host it somewhere (or get somebody to host it for you), and put the link to it on your profile page, jeez, not that complicated.

If you mean by that what I think you mean by that, no. But a little monetary compensation wouldn't be offensive.

    *sighs* Remember the part about being illiterate? First what is a pixel? Second how do I host? I could invite someone over to my house and be a host, but I don't think that will do much good because I don't have a computer at my house. What is a link? and I've only made it onto my profile page by accident once when I clicked on my name by mistake.

 

    Since I am a glutton for punishment and thank God this is a pg-13 site, again I ask What do you think I should put on for my avatar and if it's good enough I'll ask my 13 year old son to come over and do what you told me to do.

A pixel is the little square of color that, in groups, composes the images on your screen. An avatar on DM can be a maximum of 100x100 pixels square. In fact I think they force a resize to those dimensions automatically. To make one you need any image and a simple graphics program - crop and resize are the only important capabilities.

 

Hosting is where you the put the file somewhere online. Either get yourself an account with Photobucket or Imageshack or something, or find someone willing to put it on theirs.

 

The link is the web address of your image. If you click on the "profile" tab right below the blurb about RJ's death (or hell, click on your name), and then click on "account preferences" on the left of the screen, it will give you, among other things, an option of using either one of DM's stock avatars, which you're doing now, or your own image, and it will provide an box to paste the address into.

 

If you still don't get it, go bug somebody at the Illuminators board to help you.

 

Now then: *drowns ye in tapioca pudding*

*smashes Bonzo's head in with a hockey stick as if he were that papier mache monster I made in high school art and then decided later on that I didn't like*

You so did not just compare me to that incompetent fundamentalist yeti.

 

*rips off Bonzo's lips so that he can kiss his ass goodbye*

    *tries to look innocent* Who me? Comparing you to someone in the news a lot with a reference to hockey moms? No definetly not! I would never dream of doing such a thing. *looks around slyly* psst... you mentioned the hockey stick first.

 

    And by the way, you wouldn't believe how many people want my ass goodbyed!

A hockey stick is just one of many objects with which to inflict blunt force trauma, sucka. Here, see how you like this one instead. *spanks Bonzo with a spiked mace*

    I appreciate the words of warning but I've never been smart enough to realize I'm not going to win and too stubborn to give up. By the way, if you need help getting out of the Black Hole, I'll toss you a rope.
