Sloopy45, go to the "User CP" (control panel) to set up your options. It is one of the menu options listed in the top bar across most pages. In there you will find different sections for setting up your personal options. To add Brent, go to "Edit avatar". You will be given the option to use one of this sites standard avatars OR the ability to use a custom avatar. You can either link to a graphic on another site by entering the URL OR upload your own graphic (from your computer) to this site. The avatar MUST be 75 x 75 pixels or 19.5 kb ... whichever is smaller.

Sloopy45, that graphic is 75 pixels wide by 110 pixels tall. I can edit it, but in doing so the bottom of the pic is cropped and Brent looses part of his chin. I don't think you want that. I can also edit it proportionately, but Brent gets a good bit smaller (51 x 75 pixels). That could work but I'm not sure you want that either. Is there another pic of Brent you can use. It doesn't need to be hosted anywhere. As long as we get it and edit it to the correct size, then you can upload it from your computer and then the graphic will be held in the BuckeyePlanet database.

Sorry to hijack your thread Mili! Sloopy, I'll edit it and sent it to you as an attachment (on your email). I've got a meeting to go to then I will send it to you (about an hour). After you get it, just upload (from your computer) it in the "Edit Avatar" section of your User CP. Later - 3yards

3Yards,

I haven't found another pic yet, although I have found the Brent Musberger Drinking game in a Yahoo Search, created by Purdue fans: http://www.boilerstation.com/football/columns/200211040purdue_football1036386063.shtml

Ahh... the Brent Muberger drinking game is truly a classic!

Here's a better link with all the rules of the game!

Thanks

Thanks, 3Yards. My aol account no longer exists, so if that's the e-mail listed, shoot me a personal message here and I'll give you the correct address.

The Musberger Game is a Classic, especially the rule where you drink if Brent mentions a Big Ten school during a non-Big Ten game, but I can think up more rules, mostly specific to Brent & Ohio State:

1. Drink thrice everytime Brent nicknames the OSU Middle Linebacker and repeats that nickname during the course of the game: "Coach Vermeil, we gotta come up with a nickname for this big fella, what about the Big Kat?" or, Matt Wilhelm: "The Kaiser with a tremedous stop at the 25 yard line."

2. Drink twice everytime Brent speaks to "Columbus": "Let's party, Columbus!" or, "You just felt a million homes take a deep breath in Columbus, Gary," or, "Columbus knows whose record Mike Nugent just broke, its the Deli-Man, Gay Yanikievski!"

3. One drink for each time Brent has an adjective or award built into the players' name and mentions it: "Blitekoff Award Winner Terry Glenn takes it to the 15 yard line," or, "Freshman Sensation Maurice Clarett barrells through for another TD."

4. Five drinks everytime Brent goes nuts when his favorite player makes a play. (A great example of this is the OSU-ASU Rose Bowl for every tackle Katzenmoyer makes, Musberger acts like its the greatest play known to man). At one point, he even yells out, "AND COACH SNYDER'S ON THE SIDELINES SAYING, 'SOMEBODY GET THIS BIG GORILLA OFF OUR BACKS!'" On a side-note, how Katzenmoyer could ever speak out against Brent is beyond me. Musberger LOVED him! Just proves how dumb Andy was .. Another great example of this, is last year whenever Andy Groom got off a booming punt: "LOOK AT THAT PUNT!! Andy should've been a finalist for the Ray Guy Award, you were robbed, young man!"

5. A shot everytime Brent laughs histerically at a Jack Arute joke that isn't funny. Here's a great exchange:
Arute: "Brent, you may think these pancakes are my breakfast, but they're actually Orlando Pace's stats for the season .. one for every pancake block he gets."
Brent: "HA! HA! HA! HA! The mad-cap antics of Jack Arute ..."

I'll think of more rules, but I need time.

Hey Sloopy, I sent you an email. Thing is I can't actually see your address. And I can't attach a file from the email "program" within BuckeyePlanet. I need your address and to use a stand alone application like Outlook to attach a file. Forget all of the above. I've just completed a work around (for now). Use this URL for Brents picture

http://a8.cpimg.com/image/58/23/30443608-6134-0033004B-.jpg

Copy that and paste it into you Custom Avatar field here on BuckeyePlanet. I downloaded the pic to a site (Photo Club) that hosts digital pic. I know it works ... Brent is MY Avatar at the moment ... I will change back shortly. Use that URL for now.

When you get some time actually COPY the image that is located at that URL so that it is on your hard drive. From there, go back to the User CP & Edit Avatar and upload the graphic that is now on your hard drive (instead of linking to that URL). That will be the final solution to all of this. Then I will delete the Brent picture from my PhotoClub picture album and it won't affect you since you won't be linking to that graphic anymore.

Also, if you like, you can send me a PM with your email address and I will just send you the file as an attachment. Sheesh, now I NEED to play the drinking game.

It's all yours again Big Kahuna! Congrats on 1/2 a millenium. I was going to say something funny about being a post whore, but that just doesn't convey the true sense of your abilities. I'm thinking "Post Pimp" might be a better discriptor.

Mili be Pimpin'! (from what I've been lead to believe, that is a compliment ... who'd have thunk)

Testing, Testing ..

Ok, thanks, 3Yards - I'll let you know when I get a chance to save it to my HD. And I apologize for stealing your thread too, Mili. Craig Krenzel was probably red-shirting at the same time when you had only 500 posts on B-Nuts.

Sloops,

Good to have you on board....

Mili,

I was the post leader on this board until BN banned you... guess I can settle for your dust, because as we all know, nobody will post more frequently that the big kahuna :biggrin:
