An Avatar (example left) is the image that appears next to your blog, or next to any comments you make on another blog. It can be anything you like. My Avatar is of me digging in the garden with my son John.
Slightly confusingly, we all need to have two Avatars uploaded, one for our “Blog” and one for any comments we make on other peoples blogs. An important point is that once you have your Avatars up live you never have to change them again – frozen in time forever young! It only takes 2 minutes – the instructions for getting this sorted are listed below:
1. Updating Your Personal Avatar (this accompanies all your site contributions in forums across the network of vegblogs).
In the left hand menu of your admin area look for the heading titled “Users”, and click on “Your Avartar”. The page that appears has clear instructions on how to add an Avatar.
2. Updating Your “Blog Avatar” (this is the avatar which symbolises your site and allows people to find your site by clicking on your avatar.)
In the left hand menu of your admin area look for the heading titled “Settings”, and click on “Blog Avartar”. The page that appears has clear instructions on how to add an Avatar.
All the best

Hiya Ben, I have attampted to update our avatar but having followed the instructions, it does not appear when submitting new posts. Can you help please. Regards Peter.
Hiya again Ben, please ignore previous comment I have discovered there are two places for your avatar and it needs to be in both. Regards Peter
Hi Ben
Re your instructions for the next round of free seeds: do you want us to change our avatar photos if we already have one set up?
Hia – Apologies for delay in response – have been flat out on Vegetableseeds.net in run up to Xmas – OK, in answer to your question, no requirement to change the Avatar – but change is fun in itself sometimes eh? – the robin Avatar one of our colleagues is using is really fun – Hope you have a great New Year – Ben
