Marilyn Dendy Report post Posted October 9, 2009 Hi, I have 3 problems that need fixing and I don't know how. I am one of the older then dirt people so that explains a lot I guess. The first problem is that the total of my posts never changes. It seems to be stuck on #178. The second problem is that I seem to be the only person on HC that has 3 small squares bellow my name area. What does it mean and how do I get rid of it? The third problem is that I can't get a picture on my avatar. I follow the directions someone posted and nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marilyn Dendy Report post Posted October 9, 2009 One problem solved, I just don't know why. I still have those squares, it says warning. What does that mean and how do I get rid of it. How can I get a picture on my avatar? I followed directions some one posted but didn't work fo me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sprite's Mom Report post Posted October 9, 2009 I have those little squares under my name too, but don't see them under anyone else's name. I think that's for if you've been a baaaaaad HCer, and one of the mods has to warn you about your posts. I don't know about the avatar pic. I don't have one, and haven't tried to post one.

Marilyn Dendy Report post Posted October 9, 2009 I have not ever been bad so that's not it. I did have trouble logging on several months ago and had to have help. I have never been warned by the mods. I am more a lurker then a poster and I don't get nasty with anyone on HC so I can't explain why I've been singled out for the warning squares if that's what it is. I wish I could get hold of a mod or someone to tell me why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sprite's Mom Report post Posted October 10, 2009 I've never been in trouble either, but those little boxes are there, along w/the word warning. You could try to pm one of the mods, or post in the newbie area. There would probably be a better chance of someone "important" seeing it there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janice Leavitt Report post Posted October 10, 2009 (edited) The small squares are for warnings. If you haven't been in trouble, your's should say 0% and the squares should be light grey. You can only see your own warning boxes but everyone has one. Edited October 10, 2009 by Quartermutt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marilyn Dendy Report post Posted October 10, 2009 My warning boxes are out there for the world to see and I don't see any for anyone else. It looks bad and I'd like them gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KyKy14SpeedHorse03 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 You warning boxes are not visible to other people. I can't see them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janice Leavitt Report post Posted October 11, 2009 YOU are the only one that can see your warn boxes. NO ONE else. Can you see other people's 'warn' under their member number(same location as yours)? Same thing with yours and other people. Avatar, I can't help with. I just paste a picture from my PB account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kinahaji Report post Posted March 10, 2010 Are you talking about the little squares under "newbie"? I think that's just an indicator of how many posts you've got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlowingTrickPony Report post Posted March 10, 2010 the easiest way to get a Avatar is load your pix in Photobucket,(free)and you can make them the extra small and they work great!! you can also use the small&med size for your Signature. Jackie's face below is the small size my Avatar was created on photobucket for free!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
