I can't believe it's been down for so long, and why can't I upload my own avatar in this god-forsaken forum? =(

To upload your own avatar:

1) Get it as a file in a format the board will accept
2) Go to one of the threads in the New Scenerio/Mod Forum (any one will do)
3) Start (but do not finish) a post in the chosen thread
4) Select the "Upload File Form" option from the post reply dialog (on the left, under "Message:")
5) Type in the address (on your machine) or use the browse button to select the picture
6) Click upload, and wait for it to finish
7) Copy the text the dialog spits back onto the clipboard
8) Back out of the post, and view your profile ("My Profile" in the upper-right hand corner of the screen)
9) Select "View/Update Profile" (Upper left hand corner of the screen)
10) Select "Select a different Avatar Image" (middle of profile, next to your current avatar)
11) Paste the stuff from the clipboard into the "Use Custom URL" box (bottom of the dialog); do not click "Set URL" yet
12) Remove the "" and "" (including the "]" and "[/url]")
13) Select "Set URL"
14) Select "Select This Avatar"
15) Select "Update Profile"

That is probably much more verbose than you need; sorry for spending your time on the stuff you already know, but I don't really have any way to judge what that is.
