• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What does that mean?
It's the picture that shows behind your profile picture when someone clicks on your profile. I'd tell you to click on my profile to see one, but I haven't loaded a profile banner yet.

My banner is one of my own photographs, as is my profile picture. Both are pictures of an area of Virginia Beach that's at the south end of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. This beach is a couple of miles from the house where I grew up, and it has a lot of sentimental value for me.

Thanks, Teresa and PloverWing!
Yes, thank you both! I have wondered about this also. :)

So, to add a profile banner ... do we just upload a photo (image) on our computer to this website?

Nice! I lived in suburban D. C. area for approx. 20 years. I was born in the midwest and I'm here for good. I guess I'd post a cornfield if I could or a pic of a Bible.

A cornfield might make a good banner picture. The display area for the banner is very wide and not very tall, so I looked for a picture that worked with that ratio. I could see tops of corn stalks against a blue sky being a good picture that fits those dimensions.

Assuming your user interface is something like mine: Go to your profile, and look for a button that says "More options". If you click it, you get a drop-down menu, and one of the menu entries is "Edit profile banner". That takes you to a page where you can upload a picture.

Thank you ... sounds simple enough! :oldthumbsup:
