See this if you have an account but cannot post

When you established your account, one piece of information you provided was an email address. The forum software sent you an email with instructions on how to to activate your account. Until you open that email and follow the instructions in it, your account will be disabled.

You can check to see if your account is in this state by following this procedure:
1. Make sure that you have logged on with your user name and password.
2. Go to our home page, www.unix.com, and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
3. Near the bottom of the page is a list of users who are on. Click your user name.
4. You are now viewing your profile. Does it say: "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation"? If so, you have not activated your account.

You can also get yourself into this state if you are an established user by changing your email address.

If you gave an invalid email address you will not have a way to fix your account. All you can do, at present, is create another account.

If your email address is valid, you can request another copy of the activation email: resend activation information
If you have the activation code, you can enter it manually together with your user name on: The Activation Form

Libravatar::URL(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				      Libravatar::URL(3pm)

NAME
Libravatar::URL - Make URLs for Libravatars from an email address SYNOPSIS
use Libravatar::URL; my $url = libravatar_url( email => 'larry@example.org' ); DESCRIPTION
See <http://www.libravatar.org> for more information. Functions libravatar_url # By email my $url = libravatar_url( email => $email, %options ); # By OpenID my $url = libravatar_url( openid => $openid, %options ); Constructs a URL to fetch the Libravatar for the given $email address or $openid URL. %options are optional. "libravatar_url" will accept all the options of "gravatar_url" in Gravatar::URL except for "rating" and "border". The available options are... size Specifies the desired width and height of the avatar (they are square). Valid values are from 1 to 512 inclusive. Any size other than 80 may cause the original image to be downsampled using bicubic resampling before output. size => 40, # 40 x 40 image default The url to use if the user has no avatar. default => "http://www.example.org/nobody.jpg" Relative URLs will be relative to the base (ie. libravatar.org), not your web site. Libravatar defines special values that you may use as a default to produce dynamic default images. These are "identicon", "monsterid", "wavatar" and "retro". "404" will cause the URL to return an HTTP 404 "Not Found" error instead and "mm" will display the same "mystery man" image for everybody. See <http://www.libravatar.org/api> for more info. If omitted, Libravatar will serve up their default image, the orange butterfly. base This is the URL of the location of the Libravatar server you wish to grab avatars from. Defaults to <http://cdn.libravatar.org/avatar/> for HTTP and <https://seccdn.libravatar.org/avatar/> for HTTPS. short_keys If true, use short key names when constructing the URL. "s" instead of "size", "d" instead of "default" and so on. short_keys defaults to true. https If true, serve avatars over HTTPS instead of HTTP. You should select this option if your site is served over HTTPS to avoid browser warnings about the presence of insecure content. https defaults to false. LICENSE
