Then just put in the URL of your avatar.  Make sure and keep it PG.

What I really want to know is how to get a picture in your signature, like Forloc has...

It takes up more bandwidth and can really slow the forums down for people on slow internet connections.

Shaggy I can't see your profile pic...  :(

It appears to be linked off your own computer. You need to download it to a picture hosting site, like Photobucket.com and link it from there.

I know I keep meaning to do it but I keep running out of time. Sorry. I'll try to get onto it later.
