Fran, you upload the avatar the same way that you would upload a picture for the forums at www.lighthousekeepers.com/uploads

YOur avatar picture has to be 75 x 75 pixels.

You then go to my profile at the top of the page

then to change my avatar and scroll to the bottom and isert the address in the box provided, same as you would for a picture.

I hope I got it right. Let's try and find out.
