When 
you communicate with other users in the system, your name appears
as a link to your Personal Information Page.

To change this internal LON-CAPA information page, do the following:

\begin{enumerate}
\item Either move your mouse pointer over your name at the top left of the page, and select
\textbf{Information} from the displayed dropdown, or click \textbf{Main Menu} on the Inline Menu
and Select \textbf{Set user preferences} \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{pref}
in the \textbf{My Space} group then select
\includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{system-users}
\textbf{Personal Information Page}
This will bring you to your Personal Information Page.
\item Click the Edit \includegraphics[width=0.03\paperwidth]{edit} link in the Functions menu.
\item To upload an image to your Personal Information
Page, click the \fbox{Browse} button in the editor and grab
an image from your computer. When you have made your selection, click
the \fbox{Upload}  button to save the image to your Personal Information Page.
\item Clicking ANY of the \fbox{Save All} buttons will save the entire page.
\end{enumerate}

NOTES 
\begin{enumerate}
\item
If you choose to communicate anonymously within the course, students will not
be able to view your Personal Information Page through the normal link, but
Course Coordinators will still be able to view the page through the normal link.
\item
The \textbf{My Personal Information Page} is a special page; it
belongs to you, not a particular course. Contents of that page remain the same no matter 
how many times it appears. All changes made to the page propagate to all links. Bear
in mind, as populating your \textbf{My Personal Information Page} for multiple courses, you 
may not wish to add course-specific information.
\end{enumerate}
