Avatar Question

[Brad Russ]

This has probably been asked before, but how do you put up a customized Avatar? I was looking at the ones that this site has to offer, but nothing really appealed to me. I want to find one that fits my personality a little better. Can anyone help me out? Any info would be appreciated!

Ok, if you're trying to use an avatar from a stored picture you have, just simply upload it from your computer (provided that it's a picture with a valid file extension like .jpeg, .jpg, etc and that the avatar is no bigger than 150 by 150 pixels -- right click your mouse and click on properties to see what the picture size is)

Or, you can get the picture from a website. Simply right click on the picture, click on properties, then drag your mouse across the URL to highlight it, then right click and hit copy, then go back to user options and where it says picture from URL or website, right click and hit paste inside of the box where you type in the information. Again, check the picture to make sure it's not bigger than 150 by 150 pixels.

If the picture is too big, use a photo editing program to resize the picture.

I hope this helps you.
