How Do I Add an Avatar?

[Lady Shylah]

If you look to your left, you'll see a small image/icon below my name. That image is known as an avatar.

To get a standard avatar, do the following:
1. Click on "profile" found at the top of the page within the menu bar just below the banner image.
2. Click on "modify profile"
3. Scroll down to personal information
4. Under Avatar:, select an image from the drop down box
5. Go to the bottom of the page and click on the button that says "modify profile"


To get a custom avatar, do the following:
1. Find the image you want and make the image no greater than 100x100 pixels. (note: the image can be an odd size if you wish, such as 80x67 pixels)
2. Save the image to a host site and copy the URL or if the image allows direct linking, then copy the URL of the image.
3. Click on "profile"
4. Click on "modify profile"
5. Scroll down to personal information
6. Under Avatar:, select "none" from the drop down box
7. Under Avatar URL:, enter/paste the URL of the image you want to use
8. Under Avatar Width:, enter image pixel width
9. Under Avatar Height:, enter image pixel height
10. Go to bottom of the page and click on "modify profile"
