How to create an avatar:
1. Find an avatar you like. Here are some nice ones:
www.avatarity.com/
2. Use the mouse to bring the arrow over your chosen pic. Right click and a menu will pop up. Highlight "save Picture As" on the menu and click. Choose where in your files you want to save it and save.
3. Now you need to get your avatar onto the Net. Go to a free photo-hosting website like:
photobucket.com/
and create an account. Follow the directions there to upload a pic onto their site. Once that is done, you will see that under your pic is its "URL" Copy the URL by right clicking over it and selecting "copy."
4. Come here and click "profile" at top of page, then click "modify profile."
5. Where it says "avatar URL", hover your arrow there and right click for menu to come up. Click "paste" on menu. This should paste your avatar's URL there...or you can just type it in.
6. Very Important: Scroll all the way down and click "Modify Profile" to save the change you made. Your avatar should appear immediately.
If the above doesn't work for you and/or you want me to help, let me know. Be sure to post the link to the avatar you want.
