Find some place online that you can host the picture, then in your personal settings there will be an option to link to it. I'm thinking photobucket works for hosting pics, but I'm not sure.

Ah, i'm assuming it either wants it uploaded as a .jpg or a .gif

If your image is a .bmp or something like that, you may be able to open it in MS Paint and save it as a jpg.

It should be easier than that.  Go to your picture, put your pointer on it and right-click.  Hit "Properties" and highlight the address line, then go to your profile, hit "edit profile" and hit paste on the "Avatar URL" line.  That should work.

Glad you got it up (the picture, that is), reddog.


What a collection of players!  Imagine them all at their peak on one team!
