Libbyk,

Click on the My Controls tab at the top of the page and then click on the tab on the right that says Edit Avatar Settings then follow the directions from there. You can download a picture of your own or you can choose from the list they have available.

How do you post a picture?

Go to "my controls". Then go to "change avatar" on the menu on the left. You have the option of using an avatar from the gallery (most people use those) or import a picture of your own as long as it's small enough and in the correct file format.....

He was the cutest thing I have ever seen (and still is....) The breeder called him Lump because he was the biggest of the litter and now he is a 2 yr old "horse"!! This dog is huge!!

When our previous golden died when I was pregnant with the twins, my oldest daughter was devastated... I promised her when the twins turned two, we would get another golden.... Well, when the boys turned two, I was SOOOO not ready to get a dog, but a promise is a promise, and I couldn't go back on my word.... So I had 2 yr old twin boys and a puppy to "train" all at the same time!! lol.... The word "chaos" comes to mind.....

I love dogs also..... I have had one my whole life. They give such unconditional love....

I was able to change the aviator picture but still seem unable to see how to change my log in name. In error when I first signed up I entered my e-mail address and would like to actually use my name.

i am thinking there is a spot where you click on signature--when it comes up you chose your font and the size and color and click on close all tags and tell it ok--it should work--i hope----deb

You can't change your name on the board......rather, you would need to register again, which would mean that on your new login, you wouldn't have access to the PMs, address book, personal information, etc. without logging into the other....not sure if what i'm saying makes sense...basically, you need to just register again with a new name, but u can't convert your name and retain all your data.

An alternative, as I just saw Deb mentioned, is to make a signature, where, at the bottom you can say your name or whatever else you'd like to. That way you could retain all your data, not need to re-register, and still let people know your name.

Actually I can change your name on the board, just send me your old name and the new one, and mention that it is a message board User ID change.

Take care,

Scott

It did :). You can also check by opening a topic in which you had already posted--when you add or change an avatar, it updates in every post you've made. You can also check by clicking your name, either on the side of your post or at the top where it says "Logged in as: ______"

Does anyone have any idea on where I could find a picture that would fit it the avatar spot? And, how once I found one I would be able to move it there?

Thanks

Well, how does one post a picture, not changing ones avitar? I have tried the different ways I know how to (the codes) and have had no luck.

Use a photo editing program to make your own avitar. It says in your user cp the sizes allowed. Then where it says upload one of your own you browse your pc and select the one you want.

To make it the right size i use the thumbnails from my digital camera

You can use a program to change the size of your picture and I would recommend doing that...

Then, just make it so that it fits the required settings for the avatars:

Your Avatar Settings

Your avatar must be no bigger than 150 pixels by 150 pixels in size. Uploaded avatars from your computer must be no larger than 50 KB.

The following file types are allowed: gif .webp .webp .png

You're not doing anything wrong--we just can't post pictures here. You can only post pics in your avatar....I guess it's a...misleading option :)

Hi guys,

I tried to put my photo on my profile like others do but it says administrator does not give you access to this or something like that.

Can you tell me how I can get my photo on my posts?

Thanks, Jennifer

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By plumbago · Posted

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
