How can I upload an avatar with my personal photo?

[Ameen]

On my OCD board and my atheist board, I use an avatar with my real photo since I am not ashamed of who I am and I let people see the real me, mental scarring and all. Shame is something I associate with my former Christian cult, not with the person I am now. In addition, when people realize that I am real person and not some nameless Internet entity, there is a chance they will be less abusive.

How do I upload my photo avatar here--or is that not a possibility? I went to FAQ, but all I found was this:

----------------------------------------

These small images are called Avatars. They are displayed below your username on all posts that you make. There are two kinds of avatars: those provided by the administrator and those that you upload yourself.

If the administrator has provided a set of avatars, and avatars are enabled, you may select an avatar that best describes your personality.

The administrator may also have enabled custom avatars, which allows you to upload an avatar image from your computer.

For more information about avatars, click here.

When I clicked on the "click here," all I saw were examples of avatars.

In reason,

Help!

I cannot find this Dale Ryan's address.

In addition, if I try to e-mail the administration, my message will go to the same "Jeff" who ignored my request for information before I joined the board. Obviously, writing to this character is like trying to write to my sister's cat.

Can anyone please tell me where to send my avatar?

In reason,

Anyone?

[Ameen]

This is very frustrating.

Does anyone know anyone I can ask? Someone I can write to?

[Ameen]

Surely there's an administrator who can assist me. Obviously, other people have sent in their personal avatars and there is a way to do it. The information is not available in the FAQ.

(I don't like having a conversation with myself for several days.)

Best suggestion I can offer is to use this contact form:
http://www.nacronline.com/contact-form

as Dale Ryan seems to be one of the contributors at NACR. If that's what you've already tried, sorry, I can't think how else to achieve it!

[Ameen]

I'm afraid that's the same place that did not bother to respond.

Who are the administrators and moderators? If someone can tell me who they are, I can send a private message to all of them.

Also, those of you with the baby photo personal avatars: Whom did you contact?

Thank you, Dale Ryan (whoever you are!) for responding to my e-mail. And thank you, Jerry, for you effort in getting my avatar up. I don't know which of you did it, but I thank you both.

Of course, I will require rotating personal avatars that change every other day... ;)
