Read the above.

Upload a suitable pic, resize according to forum rules (can be done in photobucket) then go it your the user CP tab accross the top of the forum.

Update profile, then add the link from the left hand side of the img in photobucket.  Think it is the 2nd link down.

Save profile then go check it.   :y

Not everyone has a 20 meg broadband connection to the forum and some use mobiles/PDA's.  Please keep avatars to below 75k to avoid annoyance to low bandwidth users. Also, keep the maximum size to 110 x 110 pixels.

Although at 61.19 Kb it is within limits .... now ...  :)

bugger, it is within our current limits of 75kb.  Why did I think we had lowered that to 50Kb...

...obviously something we were going to do, but some idiot forgot to make the change (or balls up doing it) ::)
