We need a "thank you" tab if that is possible. I always liked that the FFF had that feature.

That is going to be one of the first things I will try to add.
I notice it missing too. ;)

I'm really having trouble with the avatar. I can't seem to resize the file without also resizing the image, so it comes out really small and distorted. I've tried looking up different methods online, but they all do the same thing. I don't get why the file size has to be so small so as not to accept a larger picture? Please excuse my lack of technical knowledge on this. A step-by-step might help? Thanks!

I was able to help Karenrose post an avatar. I increased the allowable file size.
Give it another try. Let me know how it goes.

I figured out how to upload a photo direct from the computer (in the area at the bottom of the reply screen).

But how do you upload from photobucket? I couldn't work that out.

Thanks in advance!

It's fairly straight forward to upload a photo from Photobucket.
After saving, virtually any picture, to your hard drive, ("your pictures"),
go into your library on Photobucket, put the cursor over the picture you want to post,
and you'll see a little "gear" in the top right appear. When you put the cursor on that gear,
you'll see a little drop window appear. Click "Share links". Another window opens,
with several selections. Copy the "Direct" link, on the right side. That's the image "URL".
Now on the Terrapin Nation board, open the reply box, click the box that says "img",
paste the image "URL", in between the two boxes, and click "Submit.
That should do it.

Here's an example of a photo I found on the internet, and saved to my pictures. :ugeek:

For those that haven't tried Photobucket, give it a try.
It's free to use at the basic level. And I set mine to private.
That means no one can see your photos unless you want them to.
