Avatars - Why can't I upload one?
This question is asked on a weekly basis. And to be honest, I can't blame those who ask. But it does get irritating to see the same question pop up every other day. :p

although i've contemplated becoming a premier member, the benefits described are at best not really that great, and at worst downright misleading. the end decision should be that you're supporting the continuing open exchange of ideas and information in a community that is both enthusiastic and, for the most part, very knowledgeable about something that we're all into, at least slightly, after all, we all bought these cars, right?
|
+1 ^^^^
|
I wish regular members could add an avatar.
|
Yeah not having avatars is a little much. I understand the idea but its not like this website costs a lot 50$ is a lot for a simple membership. Thats more then I pay for 3 small websites a year :). Plus all the money they are making from advertisements etc.
|
It's only $30...has been since I was a member. Being a premier member supports the site and gets you all the benefits Calvin listed in his first post. If you don't want to become a premier member just realize you won't have an avatar. It's not that big of a deal.

Well now I see the reason you have less Premium Members. As an administrator it is your responsability to handle these and any other types of questions as many times as required. I honestly tried to find the answer and somehow I could not. I figured it was a perk of being a "paid Member".
I wonder if the G35Driver forum / club founder knows this is the way you answer to his prospective customers. Next time dont talk in double standards! Say what you need to say!:11: |
Did this link not answer your question? If you prefer, I can copy/paste this in a PM reply next time to make it "more personal." :)

For everyone interested, please see this new announcement:

Guys, you all come here and gain a heck of a lot of knowledge.
This is a great forum with people from all walks, who share one thing in common. Some of the members share great deals of information while others come here to learn more. It's $30-. I've spent more on a bad lunch. Support the forum, or at the very least, don't complain about what the $30 gets you and continue to lurke for free. Even the regular members will have Avatar options soon... so no worries. |

I've spent more on a bad lunch. It's about supporting the forum, not the avatar. With over 80k members and at least 1000 people logging in every day, all day, this forum is not small and needs a good server and upkeep so we don't get tons of lag. The avatar and the premier member's forum is just a bonus. |
Avatars rules have now been revised. :)
A standard set are now available for 'Registered' members. & size limits increased for 'Premier' members. ...see new announcement |
So far the avatars that you can select from make this place look like the Civic forums. I made the best selections of the lot. Not only that, but just ONE Infiniti and it's a coupe? Again no love for us sedans? I had a very nice custom avatar and you guys just deleted the lot.
I was a premier member for 3 years. The only advantage was the AG section. Once I filled my HD with pr0n, I let it lapse. |
We will be adding to the standard avatars.

Could we please get decent standard avitars? The selection of G35/G27's sucks, unless you drive an IP coupe! However if you drive an Evo this is appearently the forum for you.
And if there's anime, could we get either Spike from Bebop or Kenshin Hemura? |
I've considered caving in and buying a premiere membership, (even though $30/year is a little much for a little picture by my name)
But in all honesty, I don't see why I should. There are quite a few premiere members paying into the site, and it's still buggy and has problems every few weeks. What gives??!? :dunno: |
First, the search function on this website sucks. I type in "hot twin blondes" and "cocaine sniffin' communist homosexuals" literally come up. So don't be complaining that everyone needs to answer the same questions over and over again.
It took me nearly 30 minutes to find out why I couldn't upload an avatar through the search function after being with this forum for 5 years. IMPROVE your search function. Second, what are we robots with an option to pick from 3 avatars that consist of a snowflake, a chess piece, and an orange flower? Do you watch football? CCCMMOOONNNN MMANNNNN |

Avatars must cost $5/month... so they have to be broken half the time. :dunno:
There should really be an option to host avatars off-site. SMF software allows this, vB should. |
costs too much but i do still think this is the best G35 board
