Go to the User CP and click on 'Edit Options'. The very last option is to set your avatar description.

Edit your profile. There's an "Avatar" field there now. Click User CP (top left), then Edit Options. Scroll to the bottom.

OK, got it, thanks!

By the way...

If you read all the posts in a forum and go back to the index, that forum will still show up as having unread posts until the next time you go to the index, even though it doesn't. I've seen this at *all* vBulletin sites and I believe it's just an artifact of how it works.

If you use the Forum Tools pulldown to mark a forum read, then it will immediately be cleared of the new posts indicator.

I've been playing with this since I've noticed the same behavior on other vBulletin sites. If you're reading the last new thread in a forum and then go directly to the main index it will show the forum you were in as having new messages. If you go back to the forum index that the thread was in and then to the main index it will show the forum as not having any new messages.

I reindexed the site this morning. The search should be returning more complete results now.

Now I'm getting nit-picky... Is there a way to change the verticle alignment of the smilies in the text? It used to be that the image was aligned to the bottom of the text, now it seems to be aligned to the middle...

Am I the only one annoyed by this????

I thought you might say that.

While I'm being a PITA anyway...

Can you make it so that attachments open in a new window? I just accidently closed the thread I was reading after I was done looking at the attachment...

Now that's a fair request. Done.
