Question for the Mods Re: Tunicate.

Gina · 12-18-2003, 07:28 AM

Was wondering how you become something other than a Tunicate? And hate to sound stupid here but, what is a tunicate anyway?

Gina, The as you post more your "status" (not the word I am looking for), changes. They graduate up in the amount of posts that you have. There are a bunch of different names that they will change too.
As for what a Tunicate is: Tunicates, commonly called sea squirts, are a group of marine animals that spend most of their lives attached to docks, rocks or the undersides of boats. To most people they look like small, colored blobs. It often comes as a surprise to learn that they are actually more closely related to vertebrates like ourselves than to most other invertebrate animals.

Thnaks Reeflady. Will have to think about that one. How many post do you need to have a custom avatar?

Hi Gina, I think you can change your avatar in your profile. I don't think it matters how many posts you have, but might be wrong about that?

Under 'User CP' at the top of the screen, then 'Edit Profile', I think...

you can upload an AV you wish as long as it is no more that 100X100 pixels. or once you get 250 posts you can choose custom AV's from Here
