Those are called avatars. First, you need to find yourself some web space. There are also some image upload places available for free: [[ | Those are called avatars. First, you need to find yourself some web space. There are also some image upload places available for free: [[Hosting services|see here]]. You can find your own for free anywhere from Imageshack and Photobucket, to Web-1000 and Host.SK. Free web space service providers are everywhere! Make sure they allow linkiing of images from external sites: Geocities, Angelfire, etc. do not. Next, upload your desired image. Make sure it isn't too big. A size of 60x60 is reasonable enough, maybe even smaller, like 40x40. If it's bigger, the forums will automatically resize it to 60x60, and you might lose some image quality. Then, go to your profile (you must be registered!) and type in the URL (address) of your image on the web. | ||
