I personally use a flikr account with my images stored in it. that way you arnt restrictd by filesized because the forums don't have to actually store the image in the mysql database. By addressing to a link location in flickr the forum simply goes out and retrieves the image from flickr's database and display's it.

Try both fields at the bottom of the 'profile' page, I can't remember which one works.

yeah, what you can do is create a photobucket acct. save your pictures there and then use the URL to get your avatar in forums.

Link to off-site Avatar:
Enter the URL of the location containing the Avatar image you wish to link to.


Enter the complete URL (internet address that points to your image)
then save the profile changes.. and voila! You can have a humongous Avatar like Ethos :lol:
