    This is reserved for those that help pay the bills by being a supporter. We don't ask much, just $2/Month or $24/Year via PayPal; so it's safe as easy. Those folks you see listed as "TrainBoard/RailImages Supporter" are folks that have done just that and we reward them with a Custom Avatar plus other features in RailImages as well.

    No option for personal avatar

    I see that there is no option for personal avatar. Is there a reason for that?
    Will there be one added(under one condition--no nudity or hot babes; only rail-related)?

    I would ask the same question. BEing new here, I'm not sure why we can not load out our own personal avatars, (with strict guidelines, of course) or upload animated GIFS to the avatar either, as well as in the signature part of our responses either....I am a memeber on several other sites, non train related, and it just makes them a little more fun.....little more indivuality, I guess....

    One of the perks for being a Trainboard Supporter is that you can have a personalized avatar. We have a graphics artist on staff who will work with you on designing it. Just one of the ways we help pay the bills around here. ;)

    You can put images and gifs in your sig line at the bottom. They have to be within reason and not take up too much space.

    I submitted a picture of "The Alton Railroad" months ago for inclusion in the standard list of avatars and it still hasn't appeared there. I was under the impression that it would be included. Any idea what happened to it?

    Custom Avatar

    OK I feel stupid, I cannot find a place to upload a custom avatar. The avatar section mentions custom avatars when deleting current avatar, but I only get the option for premade avatars.

    Thanks

    Thank you Steamin Scott for asking this question and thank you Stourbridge Lion for answering it. I just joined the forum today and it wasn't clear on the set-up how to do a Custom Avatar. This will be my first post on this forum.

    Further Avatars from past and current prototype railroads are added as our Staff artist has time to complete them.

    Custom avatars are offered as recognition of those who become TrainBoard Supporters.
