I can't figure out how to write something below my picture/avatar!

If you click where your name is, there will be a drop down menu. The top left link in the menu is "Personal Details". Click that. It will take you to a new screen where there will be an area "Custom Title" where you type what you want. Remember to save the changes.

It's not helping!!! C'mon! I'm not getting a dropdown menu or personal details at all! Where is the starting point? This is like being beat with a bag of oranges!

I'm using a PC! I'm thinking netscape might be the culprit here. It's such a pain.

If you follow the instructions in the above post #5, you should be able to enter text that will appear below your avatar. (it's possible the fact that you're still on moderation might be preventing this option being available to you yet, but don't quote me on that as although I know this happens with adding a Signature, I don't remember if it also applies to a Custom Title.)

I'm guessing it's 100 posts, because I've been here a looong time, but haven't hit 100 yet, and don't have the option currently. I'm glad you asked, though, so I didn't have to! ;;D

That must be it. Thanks Skinny McGee, and everyone else who threw suggestions at me. Wow. I suppose I'll unlock that option by about 2023.

Yup, it unlocks at 100!

Thanks Bony Moronie! 100 posts, huh? Prepare to be buckled under a deluge of cretinous and repetitive posts the likes of which your Stephen King addled mind and scrawny physique can not hope to withstand! Still, at 3 to 5 (brilliant) posts a week, probably 2023 was a bit optimistic. Even working at full capacity, that's about all I can muster. I doubt Stephen King himself could do any better. I'm not a machine!
