Hi Lewis,

Here's what to do.
1. Enter 'Update profile'.

2. Where it says 'Avatar' take out 'red Creature' and select 'None' from the top. (These are just the standard set offered by ProBoards).

3. There are three fields below where the red creature appears, marked 'Avatar URL', 'Avatar Height' and 'Avatar width'. Enter the URL for your own design Avatar or one from Tiny Pics or one from Jurko.com.

4. Remove from each end.

5. Set height and width at no more than 100 on each.

6. Press 'modify profile' (it may ask for your password again).

You can send me a PM if you get into difficulties. Good luck !

PS. If you want to know what 'URL' means, right hand click on your avatar and view 'details' - it will show the http:// address where your image is hosted. So that's what you need to put in that field to make it work.

Cheers Clive :)
