How I do it...
1. Take a picture
2. Put on computer
3. Size to the specs
4. Upload to www.photobucket.com
5. Save "Direct Link" code to avatar slot at the bottom of profile page.
I size my photos with Irfanview it is real easy to do once you use it a couple times. The avatar has to be within a limit of no more than 80x80 pixels AND no more than 6kb in size.
You can save pics from the net to use as well, I have done that alot when talking about different products.
Hope that helps.

You can also find free avatars on the web, for instance:
http://avatars.jurko.net/
Once you find one you like, click on properties and copy/paste the address of the specific avatar bracketed by the img tags. These will already be sized correctly for use on message boards.

Well done is better than well said.

You can also do a search for "avatar" on this forum. It's amazing what turns up.

Yeah, I told ya guys wrong, the "Direct Link" line is the one that needs to be pasted. Photobucket auto copies the codes of each line by just left-clicking them, instead of the old-fashioned way.horsesoldier03 wrote:I followed your directions and used photobucket, however, when I try to add it to my avtar slot on my profile it tells me that my URL code is not valid. Can anyone give me a suggestion here. I ensured that the pic is 80x80.
