After signing up when the site first opened I let it sit until about a day ago, and something that I still do not understand is how I can change my avatar! I see all these people with pictures of the nanosuit facing away from the screen as theirs, but mine is facing forward. What's the deal? Can I change it, or is it something that I use to see which posts were mine with ease?
Your avatar faces forwards for you, everyone elses avatar is facing backwards. It's a way to indentify your own posts. My avatar shows as facing foreward for me, but if I log out and look at my posts, it will face backwards.
We will be implementing some long needed changes to the forum very soon, we will let everyone know what enhancements will be made nearer the time and what options you will have for choosing your own avatar.
