Can anyone help? I'm blogger dumb and need assistance. Thank you! The person to successfully assist me will win a prize!

Lynn, I would gladly help, but I had to have Bro. Gene fix it for me, so I guess you'll have to wait to hear from him if it comes from our household! LOL! I'll try to get him right on it, so we can win the prize!!!!!

Lynn, you create a new post and upload the picture you want for your profile. The photo file has to be smaller than 50kb. Then you copy part of the html code that shows up in that new post after your picture is uploaded. The part you copy is following src=. It is in quotes and will start with http://

Example: http://bp1.blogger.com/_xAI4viMndJQ/RYF9KY5N86I/AAAAAAAAAFM/-iRoeF0vC1c/s400/*GeneHolley.jpg

You then go to the dashboard and click on "Edit Profile". Paste the data that you copied in the "Photo URL" blank. Then click on "Save Profile".

That seems complicated, but it is pretty simple. Email or call if you need further help!

You don't have to publish the post you created - it is only to upload the picture.

There you have it Lynn! I couldn't have told you any better! LOL! I guess Gene wins the prize. If you need more help I might could help you on the computer. I just have to "do and learn". Hope to see your picture soon!

Me too, but oh I just hate html tags. It just looks so complicated. The first time I saw it all I was teaching fifth grade and one of my students told me all about it. Just like a foreign language to me and I'm not good at learning foreign languages.

Did you really send him something or are you just pulling our legs?
