The number of posts you have made is the amount of points you can spend. Go to "Options," then "edit Avatar." If you're confused, as I was for a while, just click "Purchase Item."

I've been ignoring them since we got 'em, maybe a year ago. Now I'm playing around with them. They work, even when they don't work. (I'm at that awkward stage when I can't have an Avatar, but it still shows on my Profile.)

I should figure out the proper way.

I hit "quote," copy the whole thing, and dump it in "WordPad," leaving all the quote codes as-is.
Then minimize "WordPad" and go get another one.
Then I write whatever I've got to say and cut & paste the whole thing back to the box thingie.
It loses all the fancy fonts & colors, but the text itself is fine.

I need to compose stuff elsewhere anyway, because this thing is so glitchy that I usually can't finish before it goes wacky and I lose it all.

Either that, or save before I'm finished and then finish in "edit" mode.

At 98 posts, Psysquid is now a Second Year
and the Avitar has returned.

Has anyone ever deleted a Living Avitar?
If I exchange it for a picture of a dragon, do I get my points back?
Better yet, can I ditch it and start over?
Or does all the junk I bought just go into the closet?

Ok, I give up. How do you put a picture in your post or siggy?
