Ok...I can only tell you how I do it. I know there are other ways but this is easiest for me.
I use a free account that I set up at photo bucket. It's www.photobucket.com I download into my photobucket all the pictures I want. Once they are downloaded I open another browser window. I pull up the board.
First....you want to go into your profile.
Click on the modify profile
You will see that once you do that there is a spot for URL of the avatar picture.
I now go over to other window browswer and find the picture I want in photobucket. I click on where it says direct link and it will highlight that area. I then right click and copy the code.
I then come back over to the window that has my profile open and I paste it in the area for the URL of avatar. You want to set it to 100 X 100. Then click on the modify profile. Your picture should now show. If it looks distorted you can play with the 100 X 100 to make it look correct or if you don't want to...tell me and I will go in and fix it.
IMPORTANT.....if you delete a picture from photobucket....it will automatically delete from the board.
PS if you don't want to be bothered with doing this but you want an avatar...send it to me and I will get it up for you.
