Now that I have figured out how to post pictures I am trying to set up an avatar. I have gone to photobucket and tried all four of their options but none have worked. I have gotten an avater out of the list but cannot figure out what I need to do to get a customized one.
Apparently photobucket gives me four choices but none of them have worked.
Help.

On your 'modify profile page', put the address (URL) of the .jpg you want as your avatar, next to where it says: Avatar URL: I did it for you for the ghost, but you can change it easily  |

Thank you very much. I thought that it "just happened".
Now I have to figure out how to modify (make smaller) the image in my signature. It was reasonably small before when using the ghost but when I switched to my cat it has become enormous. I really can't keep such a huge photo.
BTW: What, exactly, did you do? I thought that I had tried everything.... Clearly not.

I just copied the URL for the ghost picture and pasted it where it says avatar URL.
then go to the bottom and click modify profile.
The avatar automatically gets small.
The sig pic on the other hand will be as big as the jpg you are linking to. So you have to make it small in photoshop or something, then upload the small picture. Then link to it.

Thanks. I tried minimizing it in photobucket and that didn't work but I'll get on it.
