How do you put your avatar as a picture not from the avatar list? Like if I wanted to put a picture of Soda I found on the internet and thats not on the list of avatars you can pick, how do I do that?

You have to upload the picture/avatar to a website and then insert that URL into the Avatar URL slot. If you find that you are still having an increasingly hard time with it, I will upload one for you. Try it first though. It's really not as difficult as it seems, lol. It took me a few tries to figure it out the first time as well.

You know if you'd like, you can email it to me and I'll put it up on the default list. So you don't have to bother with all that uploading stuff.

Right. You have to use the exact URL of the pictures - when a picture is uploaded to a site, it has it's own URL (for example, when you click on the picture and it comes up on it's own page - that's it's URL).
EDIT: Make sure the picture is a correct size for an Avatar first - otherwise it'll mess things up. That's also why you can put in the Avatar Width and Height requirements - it keeps it the size it ought to be. Anywhere between 65 - 100 should be fine.

You wouldn't find it in FAQ anymore. It was removed when I was mocked. Still, it looks as though I am having the last smirk on this one.
An avatar is the neato picture you put up. Mine is Joe Rielly sound asleep in his Stetson making me drool every time I see it. So if you want one up, either send it along or copy the url!
See ya in the funny papers!!!
