I would love to see your pics. Have you all tried to "Provide custom avatar" link under the "custom avatar" link under "edit Avatar" link in "view/edit" profile under " Profile" under "My Space" under "Go" at the top left of the forums. BTW you can add the custom avatar only if you already have it on a web page with just the custom avatar(your pic) by itself.

Have you uploaded your picture to a webpage.You can't copy and paste them off of your computer.The picture has to live on the web on a page where it has it's own URL (so when you use that URL the ONLY thing that is in the window is the picture).There are a number of free picture hosting websites that work.Once you have the picture with it's own URL then you can use that URL for custom avatar or post in a post using the image tagsI think when there is no picture the person did not update their profile when we moved to the new platform.K.

If you don't have it uploaded to web page you can upload it to http://www.photobucket.com. You need to make an account there. It used to be free, might still be.
