Hi Katey and welcome.
If you go into your profile (click profile button just under the search panel above) on the left hand you will see a heading Modify Profile, under that you'll see forum profile info - click that and you can upload a pic there.

And don't worry, no-one here laughs at anyone for something they don't know.  There's no such thing as a daft question I've found  :)

That is what I appreciated about this site when I first joined; no one made me feel stupid or uninformed.  Everyone just wanted to help.  This is a marvelous group and we are glad you are here with us, Katey.

Katey, that's how we all learned, we asked questions.

I used to feel same, but not anymore. Everyone here has been so willing to help.
I wouldn't hesitate to ask anything.

Guess I haven't found the last place, then.  It was in my purse, along with my radio broadcaster, which is about the same size.  I was hoping it just fell out, but I'm starting to have a sneaking suspicion that someone took it while I was at work.  I hate that!

You left it in the break room and someone liked it more than you do. It's gone.

Ahh, well, I got a new shuffle as a gift for my birthday.  It's lovely to have portable music again, even if I'm still frustrated at losing the old one.
