I am a new USMS swimmer. I have a few questions about the avatar section of the forums. I see that there are different satuses for swimmers. Such as, active member, very active member and participating member. Also some people have a USMS logo on their page that indicates that they are a USMS member. I'm curious as to how these different levels of identification are obtained. Since I just signed up as a USMS member shouldn't I have the logo on my avatar? I am currently swimming unattached. I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.
