Avatar pic question

I know this has been talked about and I searched the FAQ's but....
I have my pic on photo bucket but when I enter in the URL on the avatar page it comes back as invalid. All I have is a cell so i'm limited. Could someone just point me in the right direction? Thanks!

No I go into the page on photo bucket where it says find urls. And it gives me 4 to choose from. I tried them all but I think it's too big and don't know how to shrink it down to the allowable size.

I think I know what youre doing wrong. If im not mistaken you must take a picture from your computer.. not online. Try saving the picture you want in paint, and when it says "Browse" for your avatar find that, then "upload"

Ok, I just looked at it. Itll be a lot easier if you just save it to your computer and upload it like that. You can delete the picture afterward if you do not want to keep it, but itll still be on the site.

I take pictures with my cell & E-mail them to my Photo Bucket. Then if I want to post it in my user control panel, I save them to my computer ( my pictures ) & then use that. At least I think that's how I do it. Don't speak computer & usually have to try 3 or 4 times before it works. Good luck, maybe somebody else can help.
