    Idea [I] Forum Tip: Update your bio in your profile, it's new! (Thanks to mommyem for suggestion!)

    The bio isn't new, but it now uses the editor instead of just a textbox -- so you can change fonts and colors, and of course add images using the image linker and image picker tools!

    Please use your bio to tell us all about yourself!  Use your imagination --- your bio length is unlimited (I think, pretty dang long anyway), and here are some ideas to get you started:

    • Add a ticker for each child's age.  Tell us what's special about each of your little ones!
    • Add all the glitters and blinkies you want! 
    • Tell us about your DH / significant other.  How long have you been married?  What does he do?  How did you meet?
    • Tell us about your gender journey.  What gender are you hoping for and why?  What method did/are you attempting?
    • More about yourself.  What are your political views? Your religion? Your favorite music, movies, books, tv shows?
    • You get the idea.  You can click my avatar to see my profile.

    (Thanks to mommyem for the idea for this!  This is not as elaborate as what you showed me but since the length of your bio is not limited you can pretty much do whatever you want... maybe someday I can add the option to pimp your profile.)

    Ok...I must be a ding dong or something...but smiliey and tickers are not working in my Bio.  So I have nothing fun in there Sad

    What am I doing wrong?  I did my tickers like I would in my signature and when I click on the smiliey I want, it doesn't show up...jut the brackets.....

    Hmmmm

    Maureen told me that I have to hit the HTML button and put the codes in there, so that's what I've been doing and it's been working.

    To make different sections, just type the name of the section and make it in bigger text.

    You can add the horizontal divider  by clicking the button on the toolbar for the divider.  (I just added this today, the icon is just a horizontal line.... in between indent-left and bulleted list.)

    for some reason i cant find the horizontal divider button?

    also, why are my pictures coming out so huge? the first pic of my DS and the last pic of my DS are both the same size 170 x 226.... why do they look so different?

    You may need to switch to using the enhanced editor.  In your profile, click site options, then switch to the enhanced editor, and save your profile. (I don't know about yoru image size thing, I'll look at it.)
