Its called an avatar and you'll need the url of the picture you want to use or have an image saved on your computer. Go to your [b]User CP > Settings & Options >Edit Avatar[/b]. The rest is pretty straightforward.

If you want a customized avatar and don't know how to make one one or where to start post a thread in General Discussion describing what you're looking for. Ask nicely! Smile

If you want to try making one yourself [url=http://www.chuckpalahniuk.net/community/showthread.php?s=&threadid=600]click here[/url] to read a tutorial posted by ROBB23.

If you have any other questions about avatars or anything else really, ask away.

Wes did the original and Disx tweaked it to make it throb. Tuffy has made some good ones too but I think he only makes avatars for girls. I might be wrong.

Yes, a sig. Hmm, how about "Love, Michael"?

Whats the problem? Are you seeing a little red box instead of the picture? If so, you need to find another picture. Is it too big?

I'm not sure what you're asking. In general, go to the main naviagation bar at the top of the page where it says HOME NEWS EVENTS etc. Click on COMMUNITY which will drop a bunch of options including PROFILE.
