    Hey Junior

    A url (earl) uniform resource locator = http://www.whatever.com/picture.jpg,gif,bmp or what ever. You would use a url only if the pic you want to use is on the web.

    The other choice is Upload a picture from my computer. You would use this one if the pic you want to use is on your computer. Click browse and navigate folders on your computer til you get to the pic

    A URL is an internet address for a picture. For instance, the following picture:

    is located here:

    http://img163.exs.cx/img163/6551/cahootsmall033td.jpg

    To place a picture on the web that is on your computer, you can go to the following site: http://www.imageshack.us/

    Or you can click the option "Upload a picture from my computer" which is probably easier.

    Also dont worry about the size too much, the board will resize the pic to fit.

    They're a clown troope from Juneau, Alaska. They're pretty funny.

    holly, oh boy do I ever sympathize with you! But once you get it down you'll be changing your avatar plenty. I can't wait to see what you choose! Panda (currently of the RedPanda kind)
