You can on tapatalk, just tap on your name, takes you to your profile. You should see a little camera symbol, tap on you name again and you should be able to edit your avatar then

[Dannyboyz]

Ok mate I'll give it a go cheers

Cheers, Danny

[Dannyboyz]

Thanks for that clunk, just got onto tapatalk the other day so still trying to figure it all out, can I post photos with it too? Also how do you quote like you did on my first post?

Cheers, Danny

To quote, just tap on the post you want to quote, then tap on the arrow that bends to the left...... thats on an android device, may look different on a crapple.

To post a photo tap on the 3 dots on the top right, then tap reply. You'll then see your typing area. I usually then just tap on y he symbol that looks like a couple of mountains, 2nd from the left
