I've always had problems with most of these programs. Any suggestions on how I could remedy that? If not, is there information available in tutorials here that cover doing all of those things manually? I really appreciate the help, I realize this is quite an old post. Actually I was doing a search for how to manually change the user picture frame & saw this post, but I know I've tried using a lot of these before with no good results
:sad:
