1) Copy url. Make sure it ends in an image format, .jpg in this case. You do not want any php code.
2) Click on My Home near the top right of the forum.
3) Under Main Configuration, click on the Edit button next to "Personal information, email, password, etc."
4) Towards the bottom, locate the option with the caption "URL to your avatar (48x48 max pixels, may be smaller) (.gif, .jpg, .png accepted)." Select this option. Paste the URL found in step 1 into the box just below the text.
5) Click on Submit button.
6) Show off shiney new avatar.

If you like that one and want to use it, then perhaps David will "do that thing he does so well around the edges" to make it a bit spiffier.

And don't feel obliged to keep it. Something that's "you" might come along any day now.

Amazing the way that tiny double border (and "upper-lefthand light source") "brings out" an avatar. Nice job!

I think the light glare in the upper left detracts greatly from this particular image. It disrupts the flow of the swirl. To me, the image looks better with black in that spot instead of white.

As much as I like to disagree with fyron I think this might be one of those rare occasions where we happen to be on common ground... (but if asked I'll deny fyron actually had any influance on this post.)



Cheers!
