Forum Avatars and Team Flairs!

alexfall862 · April 9

Hi!

As the site has grown, avatars with a user's CFB no longer reflect the full scope of what that users may be doing, and users have given feedback that frankly it starts to get hard to track who's doing what where outside of CFB due to this.

We're going to open user avatars to be whatever you like, instead of assigned from your CFB team! (tomfoolery and NSFW still not allowed).

Where to Change Avatar

Additionally, to make sure folks know who's who in posts, we have a feature inside of your user profile where you can add your teams!

As long as no one abuses this or uses it maliciously, adding your teams to your posts/profiles is as easy as selecting them out of a drop down menu! (we'll lock it behind admin privileges if it becomes a problem)

The next question is: How do you do this?

(Note: FCS football teams, non-football schools in the CBB league, and the international teams in simBBA have not been added yet, but will be soon.)

Special shoutout to @TuscanSota, @Kirby, @Spoof, @subsequent, and @Sarge who at various points helped make this happen!

Instructions

Step 1: Go to profile

Step 2: Select Edit Profile

Step 3: Select the appropriate teams

Step 4: Save!

And it should look something like this (and it should be visible on this post as well):
