How do I access my profile?

When you are logged in, your login name should appear in the upper right-hand corner. Click on it and it will take you to your profile page.

How do I set my avatar?

Go into your profile and click on the tab marked "Avatar." Undertow does NOT come with preloaded avatars. You will need to use an image that is saved to your computer. To add this image, click on the "Browse" button and locate the image you want to use as your avatar. Then click on "Update" and "Save Changes." It will take a few minutes for your avatar to appear.
Be sure to click off "Yes" beside "Enable Avatar." If you don't do this, people won't be able to see your avatar.

How do I add a signature?

Go to your profile. You will see a tab called "Signature and Bio." In there is a box where you can enter your signature.

How do I post a picture?

The first step to posting a picture is to get the URL address of the picture you want to post. If the picture is already on the Internet, locate it and then click on it using the right mouse button. Then click on "Properties." This will bring up a box. Find the "Address" line. If this line is a URL address and contains the word "images" or "photos" or something similar, cut and paste it.
If the picture you want to post is not on the Internet, you need to create a URL address for it by posting on a site like Photobucket [http://www.photobucket.com/].
Once you have the URL address, start a new post and then click on the button that has an image of a tree on it. A little box will pop up. Fill in at minimum the "Image URL" line. You can fill in the other fields if you want. Click "Insert" and you're done!

Sometimes there is a delay between when I post a message and when it shows up on the Board. Why is that?

This is happening because your computer has cached the old version of the Board (prior to your post). If you refresh, your page should instantly become up-to-date.

Why Was I/My Friend Banned?

Individuals are banned because that person broke one of the rules. Please do NOT ask for more specific details by posting a message on the Board. Any such messages will be deleted. Instead, please either PM one of the mods or admin send an email to help@SuzanneVega.com 
And once banned, always banned. Anyone who has been banned is NOT welcomed back on the Board and any new IDs they create will also be banned. If you suspect that a banned person has returned to the Board, please alert the mods.
