(I learned about this from Wordyone's Movie board,,, thanks for putting it into words Ann!  Would like to share the news with our friends here on the Sand box.)

As you may know, until now, only members who’ve subscribed to premium message board packages have been able to add photos to their profiles. But now this feature will be available to all iVillagers, FREE.



We made this change because being able to “put faces with names” is a good thing and we think that everyone will enjoy it. Adding a photo to your profile is easy, but if you are unsure of how to do it, here are some basic instructions to help you along.



Add Your Photo to Your Profile





  1. To add a photo to your Profile, you need to be logged in with your member name.


  2. Go to any message board, then click on the "Profile" link to the right of your member name in the shaded bar at the top of the page.


  3. When your Profile opens, click on the “Update Your Profile” link.


  4. Click on the "Change Image" tab.


  5. Click the "Browse" button to access photos on your computer.


  6. Once you’ve selected your photo, click “Upload.”



Photos must meet the following requirements:




  • The picture file must be in .gif, .jpg, .jif, or .jpeg format
  • The picture cannot be more than 72 K. The picture dimensions should be 100 width x 150 height pixels
  • To avoid copyright issues, you must be the owner of the photo or image.
  • The photo or image that you upload must comply with our Terms of Service.

Yes, but remember, the picture you use in your profile is the one that others see in your avatar. That's how I change my avatar on the left to whatever book I'm reading.

I am annoyed! Every pic I try to add- keeps popping back at me saying it exceeds 75K- it seems that I don't have any pics with a lesser amount! how do you go about getting a smaller pic space--- if that makes sense!
