I'm putting together a list of "how to's" for navigating and doing things like posting pictures and custom avatars. I'll post that info in this section.
Posting a picture in your post:
To add a picture or graphic like this:
all that you have to do is have a picture on the web. Use a service like www.photobucket.com and upload you picture or graphic. Once it is loaded - copy the location URL of the picture and paste that URL in your post in the forum. Highlight that URL once it is posted, and select the "Insert Hyperlink" button (it looks like a planet right above the smiley) and that's it - you have posted an image.
To make an image your avatar instead of the provided list of graphics - Use the same method as above with Photobucket.com, and copy & paste the URL from Photobucket - or grab an image from a website by right clicking on it and hitting "Properties". Copy the image URL and paste it in the box provided in your "modify" section of your profile. Select "none" from the list of Avatars, and you will have the outside image as your Avatar.
More tips soon.
