When viewing the Registry for one vehicle there is an option beside the Owners name called
(All of this user's vehicles) when you click this it brings you to a page that has, (drum roll please)
a list of all my vehicles with a nice little picture.

The problem is that little picture seems to be the first picture I added to that account.
Is there a way to change that default picture to an updated one.

Cheers

You are correct -- it just selects the first picture added to that vehicle for the thumbnail of that registry entry. Currently, we do not have the ability to override this but we will be adding it soon. We have some additional video playback features we are working on and then we'll address the default thumbnail/avatar for your individual registry entries.

Thanks,

So I was wondering if you ever made it possible to change this picture. Because I would love to change both of mine and since you said you were trying to do it soon, I figured since that was back in April 2007 that it might have gotten done by now. Thanks!

Wow, April 2007 -- that was so long ago!

We do have this on the short list of things to do in the next 2 weeks (or so). We are currently working on a few other feature requests (namely the ability to REPLACE an image without losing the hit count, description, or causing the link to break).

Try the step-by-step instructions here:
http://www.supermotors.net/forums/thid-6765-how-to-set-the-default-image-avatar-for-a-registry-entry

If it's still not working, can you let me know what's specifically happening? i.e. are you getting an error message or anything?
