more or less - Contributing and Gold Members can both do custom avatars, Gold a little bit bigger. There are advantages to membership! We do want to give something a little extra back to all those who see fit to support us, even though there is no requirement to do so, and custom avatars is just one of several at the moment, and more to come.
Go to the faq and search on HUBB privileges for current details.
Plus of course you get our sincere thanks and loads of good karma!
Grant and Susan

Custom Avatar
Since the HU meeting in Belgium, I am contributing member but I can not load a Custom Avatar :-(
I would love to have my profile picture as an avatar.
I looked in the FAQ and in other posts but I does not work. What do I do wrong ?

Try again Jan, you should be able to now! I have upped your status, and thanks for the support!
Problem is we're running behind - it's a manual process to upgrade the status, and we've been going flat out since before Belgium. Straight from the Belgium Meeting we rode to Portugal for the meeting there, rode back to the UK, then I was off to Mexico for the meeting there, and only just got back on Friday.
things are slowly getting caught up and back to normal slow...
Everyone will get upgraded soon!
thanks for your patience - by next year it will be a much quicker process!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
