Anyone but me. I like nothing. No, I mean I really like nothing. And that's my philosophical friend, as you would say, or rather my security blanket, ala Linus.

Sure, but you're an antinatalist so perhaps you dont't count.Dalek Prime wrote:Anyone but me. I like nothing. No, I mean I really like nothing. And that's my philosophical friend, as you would say, or rather my security blanket, ala Linus.

I suppose I could get a crossed-out stork... "No Storking!" Or the antinatalist mascot; the Antinatalist Antelope, of which I call the Antinatalope Copyright 2015, 2016.

No. I didn't. That's why I put it in quotes.
I did have kittens though, not of my doing of course.

My children and grandchildren didn't count till after they started talking, the granddaughter still gets mixed up counting to 100. For example she would get to 79 and pause and I just asked her what comes after 7? and then she figured it out. We had to keep reminding her older brother to not just say it for her.

Its usually because you are not meeting the avatar requirements as stipulated in the Edit Avatar section of your profile:-thedoc wrote:I have tried to load one, I want to use a photo from my computer but I haven't been able to figure it out.attofishpi wrote: That's lovely doc, where's your avatar?
Maximum dimensions; width: 80 pixels, height: 80 pixels, file size: 6.00 KiB.
You need to load the photo into a picture editing program, such as Photoshop - or even Microsoft "Paint" - which is in All Programs->Accessories (If you're using windows) - if you are going to use Paint, load the photo into it - usually as a *.jpg file. Then select the "File" menu (in some cases its just a triangle pointing down in the top left) then select 'Properties' - here you can change the dimensions of your picture - select pixels and reduce it to 80 pix or less for width and height. Up the top it shows the File Size which needs to be under 6KB. Then SAVE it under a different filename ready to upload to the Forum.
After all that, i know you are going to tell me you are using a MAC..

I'm still wondering why the signature feature won't function.

Re: Avatar - think of a philosophical friend...
Yeah i just tried adding one - i think its turned off in general on this forum, i've never seen anyone with a sig. here.
Re: Avatar - think of a philosophical friend...
No, I'm using windows 8 but I only use the computer to access the internet, I don't get on the computer and do anything else. I'll see if I can find the programs you referred to, but my biggest problem is that it seems that every programmer or user calls the same thing by a different name and I'm just supposed to know what they mean.attofishpi wrote:Its usually because you are not meeting the avatar requirements as stipulated in the Edit Avatar section of your profile:-thedoc wrote:I have tried to load one, I want to use a photo from my computer but I haven't been able to figure it out.attofishpi wrote: That's lovely doc, where's your avatar?
