Как прикрутить аватар к моему нику (пособие по форуму IPB 2.0)

ВОПРОС: Как прикрутить аватар к моему нику?

ОТВЕТ:

1. Включите компьютер. Аватары работают только на включенных компьютерах. На выключенном компьютере аватары не работают.

2. Зарегистрируйтесь. Согласно индуизму (и это подтверждают многие индусы, работающие в outsourced support centers) аватар нельзя прикреплять к незарегистрированному нику. От этого ухудшается карма и того, кому принадлежит ник и самого аватара.

3. Войдите (залогиньтесь) на форум. Согласно книге “Форумные аватары как проявление милости Кришны” только войдя на форум под своим именем можно вызвать к жизни свой аватар.

4. Нажмите ссылку “Мой Профиль” под шапкой форума. Если вы не нажмете ссылку “Мой Профиль“, то не сможете установить или отредактировать аватар. Поэтому вы должны нажать ссылку “Мой Профиль” чтобы установить или отредактировать аватар, иначе, если вы не нажмете ссылку “Мой Профиль“, то не сможете установить или отредактировать свой аватар.

5. Найдите в левом столбце ссылку Настройки аватара и кликните на ней. Если вы не можете найти такую ссылку – найдите себе хорошего окулиста. Если вы не можете кликнуть – попробуйте воспользоваться манипулятором “мышь”.

6. Если вы хотите выбрать аватар из загруженных на сервер – выберите галерею, аватары из которой вы хотите просмотреть. ВНИМАНИЕ! Вход в галерею бесплатный, поэтому не нужно искать билетера, контролершу или спрашивать “Где купить билетик?”

7. Если желаемый аватар расположен на другом компьютере в сети интернет, то в поле, расположенном напротив слов “Введите ссылку на файл Вашего аватара” введите ссылку на файл вашего аватара. Все будет работать, если ссылка введена правильно.

8. Если вожделенный аватар был вами скачан на ваш персональный (или не совсем) компьютер – вы можете его разместить в тайном хранилище аватаров, где только вы сможете им пользоваться. Для этого нажмите кнопку Browse, которая находится рядом с пустым полем и словами “Загрузите аватар со своего компьютера”. Нажав кнопку вы сможете выбрать из всего многообразия файлов на вашем компьютере тот, в котором находится ваш аватар. Воистину, бесконечна милость Кришны.

9. Когда вы закончили выбирать аватар, необходимо нажать на кнопкуОбновить аватар“, чтобы Погонщик Аватаров, который каждое утро объезжает свои владения на белоснежном слоне, принял ваш аватар и разместил его в подобающих случаю покоях.
