I has been reported. I don't have a pictorial avatar and have no burning desire to create one. However, I would definitely prefer an avatar with my username instead of the big letter "O" in a colourful square blob. Is there any way in which this might be possible? I struggled for a good half hour yesterday in an unsuccessful attempt to amend my profile on this basis, in the belief that it was a new whizzo TV feature!

Maestro Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I heard that the avatars are being "migrated" and should be displayed again soon. If you're in a hurry you can upload yours again if you have a backup copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Here is a generic avatar. Or go here and pick one. https://www.google.com.sg/search?q=avatars&newwindow=1&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj-gMK_u67XAhUHMY8KHedGCI4QsAQIMg&biw=1536&bih=759&dpr=1.25#imgrc=_ Instructions for doing it follow. First step go to your profile page. And click the symbol for a immage. You will see this. You can use this URL. https://assets.thaivisa.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2017_11/5a02c3cf08e06_genericavatar.jpg.390dc373732ca413ba702f408deab94c.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a copy of your old avatar somewhere on your computer so that you can upload it again? If not, try and see if this search with the Chrome browser finds it: https://www.google.ch/search?hl=en&biw=1920&bih=974&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=qmMIWtb4NIyma5vrheAL&q=ukrules+thaivisa&oq=ukrules+thaivisa&gs_l=psy-ab.3...28060.28060.0.30672.1.1.0.0.0.0.71.71.1.1.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.jGiRpg0brj0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was old age. I did not have the original file saved anywhere. Only a copy and paste used somewhere else. Decided it was time for new one.

Maestro Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 It is only my impression or do indeed many members who previously had no avatar, respectively had a white capital letter on a monocoloured background as the default, now have an avatar? I have been wracking my brain what a member who would like to have an individual avatar but can't think of an image to use could do and the best I can come up with is http://www.random-art.org/online/ Type in your member name, or anything else, and click on If you don't like the result, make variations of your input.
