Changing the avatar of a Deleted Member

[queenfoxy]

I have my board set up so the oiginal post always stays at the top.  While I was getting this setup, a new member kind of hijacked the #1 original post position on one thread.  I just copied her post to be post #2.  I then edited the Image I had chosen into the first post posiion.  Of course, it still appears that person made the post.  That part is ok.  What is not OK is that it now has this default avater and it is just plain ugly.  The thread now has 17 pages and I don't want to start it over.  Is there anything I can do to get another avatar into hat deleted member spot?

Hi, queenfoxy.

Deleted members and new members who haven't linked or uploaded an avatar yet use whatever is specified as your default forum avatar. You can upload a default avatar in Members > Forum Avatars in your admin area. Clicking on any avatars listed here after you've uploaded them will set them as the forum's default.

Thank you again, aRMY83.  That worrked for me, but would not work with my images stored at Image Shack.  After a couple of tries, I put my newly created avatar in my Fottki storage and posted it from there.   Bingo!!  It worked.  I am rid of that default avatar that looks like a dead human.

Thanks Brian.  I am just now seeing your response.  That is great information and I will definitely use it.  After almost 9 months, I am still learning new things.  Thanks to all of those who have helped me to come this far.  In my opinion, the support team here is the greatest.  I salute you!!

Thank you, Brian.  I now have a pretty, new default avatar.   Cool!!
