It's TIME! How do you make an avatar?

I THINK that is the name of the little picture on the signature! I looked at the choices...but I want a custom one..don't know how to attach it..nor how small it has to be shrunk (they only talk is MB or KB or whatever..I need percentages!)
Thanks!

uploading avatars

If you go to your User CP page, along the left side is a link for Avatar. Sounds like you have already made it there.........at the bottom of the page you can browse your own harddrive to upload a picture.
I don't think I can tell you a percentage to shrink it without knowing how big it is already. But, if you right click on the photo from the directory its in, you should be able to view the "properties" and see both pixels and file size. If you post that information we can help! Or you can email me the photo and I can shrink it for you..
