First, Hello and Welcome!

If you look at the top of the page, just under "Board index" link you'll see "User Control Panel" click that.
then clikc the "Profile" tab.
next is "Edit Avatar"
and there you are, just upload your picture/icon! :D


Hello and Welcome minerva5 :D

And a big Thank you and Welcome to Tagreth! :shake:

If you two need anything just shout.


Warm Wishes,
Mike :warm:


Thank you for the guidance. I have found the control panel and "Edit avatar" O.K. but when I access my picture files, and press "Open" on the screen it doesn't transfer it to the edit avatar screen , all I get on that screen is the long box coming up with the address of my pictures file. Hitting browse doesn't do anything.Neither does submit. I'm obviously not cut out for this century!! P.S. It's a miracle I found this way of replying! xxMin.

Well I don't know minerva5. :D Try to go to "The Field Guide" section of the board (third box down on the main page) and look up the directions for uploading avatars.

Hi! I am 45 and American (with all the good and bad that those things imply.) I started out Roman Catholic (the first 40 years) and ended up Episcopal (Anglican Communion), learning about the Celtic Church and from there the pre-Christian Celtic ways. I have studied several Asian martial arts, Reiki, and qi gong. I am looking forward to interacting with folks who can help me make a nature spirituality, deeply rooted in my local geo-history, that can serve all creatures in the coming climate disruptions and chaos. (Not to sound TOO apocalyptic...)

Hello CleddauGal, :)

Welcome to the OBOD message board. :D Make yourself at home and if you have any questions just ask. Below are a couple of links which may help you get to know more about us, so please feel free to check them out. |-) Since you come from a Christian background, I took the liberty of giving you a link which discuses both traditions – I hope they are helpful.

Hello All,

My name is Amber. I've been a Bard of the Order for about six months or so, and I am truly at home in Druidry. I was raised Christian, coverted to Catholocism at 13, then converted out at 23. I was taught how to journey in my teens, and have always been drawn to the healing arts. I am 28 years old living with my Husband and Son in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada. Originally from California, though, I don't think I'm going back. I am a Reiki practitioner and self-taught herbalists as well as an artist and crafter. And if I didn't have enough already on my plate I am learning Capoeira and mastering the recorder. I think that covers just about everything.

Many Blessings.

Always with Gratitude,
Amber or otherwise known as Ellewynn

Oh good! You found it! :D It's been so long since I uploaded an avatar picture thingy, that I'm afraid I might blow up my screen if I tried it again. :-)

I like yours BTW.

Cheers,

Hi! I'm Libby.

I come from Shropshire and will get round to adding an avatar eventually.

I've been a pagan for several years and keep being drawn to Druidry so thought I'd have a look around here (I've got a couple of books on Druidry but haven't got round to reading them because I have so many other books :) )

Hi Libby! :D If you're in Shropshire, you must be close to Wild Ways! |-) Check it out if you have not already done so. :) Anyhoo, welcome to the OBOD Board and if you need anything just shout.

Re: 13th October reply.
Well Mike, I couldn't download my own pics so I branched out and found the other option of Gallery. The Triscelle is the same as I bought as a silver pendant in Brittany which I wear all the time , the neon green is a bit OTT but what the hell! Well done to whoever concocted the gallery selection, something there for everyone I think!
