Help 2:Avatars

You can upload an avatar to represent yourself on Memory Alpha as well as all of Fandom's other communities. It will appear in several locations, and gives you another way to identify yourself to others.

Step by step


To upload an avatar for your profile:


 * 1) Save your chosen image to your computer (if not there already).
 * 2) Go to your user page.
 * 3) Mouse over your current avatar, then click the "Edit avatar" link that appears.
 * 4) Press the "Choose file" button and choose your image.
 * 5) Observe the preview of your avatar and decide if that's how you want it.
 * 6) Click the "Save, I'm Done" button to save your avatar.

Avatar locations
Your avatar will show up:


 * On the header at the top of your userpage.


 * Next to your replies on the and.

Choose your avatar wisely! Note: On mobile devices like iOS, JPEG image files will not work.
