Sorry you're having some technical difficulty. I think if you go into My Page then look for My Settings on the right you'll find an option to upload your dept. photo. You might want to make sure it is a .gif or .jpeg.
I recently accepted another job, and I no longer work for PennWell. I'm sorry I missed you in my notifications to my friends & authors. I certainly enjoyed working with you over the years and meeting Jackie.
Bobby has been kind enough to allow me to stay on the Fire Engineering community although I'm no longer working with the fire service. I do hope to stay in touch with my friends and authors.
If there's anything else I can do for you don't hesitate to let me know. Janie Green, Fire Engineering Books' marketing coordinator, also is on this site so add her to your friends if you haven't already.
