If you up-load a photo that you would like to use as an avatar then create an avatar photo album and make sure you click the box for making the album hidden.

From that photo you will see the text " Forum Codes"
click the forum code for "Thumbnail size" image.

with the cursor placed in the address bar <> right click the mouse
left click select all then click copy

Now go to your profile and choose create new avatar <> click the cursor into the file window then right click the mouse <> then left click Paste .
save the changes & it should come up .

First is <> Put the image in an avatar album.

I'm here. If you need help sizing it - or even getting an animated .gif to work, let me know.

PM me if this thread drops below the event horizon...

I dowloaded a program off the net that allowed me to shrink pics to whatever size I need. They tend to come out a little blurry, but all-in-all I am pleased.
