…just to look at my Avatar again. Beware Narcissus!

Note to everyone: The new Avatar pictures were automatically chosen by the system for each person. If you don’t like the picture you got, upload a new image!

So I added the Avatars… we have a couple libraries to choose from. Each user here can click the “Edit Profile” option in the upper right corner of the website after logging in.

We might have a page load/performance issue, but maybe we’ll see how it goes. I kindof like the added personal touch. At least I’ll be smiling for each of my bitter critical comments :)

In regard to Avatars, I’ll check if our custom theme can support them. If so, maybe we’ll turn them on and see if anyone likes/dislikes the format?

Ben, the Google Analytics stats are somewhat tedious to explain. Here is a good article: How Sessions are calculated in Analytics

This averages 160-170 visits/day in the U.S. Seems a lot, but wouldn’t that be from many of the same people? Is there also a way to track how many different people there are who visit?

Thanks for the stats, Brian. Wow, three quarters from the U.S. (68%) and Canada (6%)!

Could you also set up the ability to upload an Avatar?

Yeah, maybe after the comments. Perhaps we could reduce from 30 to 10 recent comments?

Sure Ben those stats are easy to add. Where does it make sense to place them? Maybe after Comments?

I couldn’t figure out how to add/upload an Avatar on your website? I wouldn’t mind avatars here.

Could these visit stats (from your website) be added on UBFriends?

Hey everyone, I also did a revamp of my priestlynation.com website over the weekend. In terms of technology, I added Avatars to the discussion sections. That means each person can upload their own picture/image or use the default icon. If there is any interest in adding Avatars here, let me know. It seems to add something to the discussions.
