Are you using the URL address location, as opposed to the IMG method used to adding graphics to a post?jderoche5 wrote:How the heck do I upload an avatar to my profile? Am I missing something. I cannot get an image into that dang box!

The steps to adding an avatar.....
First off, you need to host your picture on a third party website like photobucket. Once that is done copy the URL to the photo and follow these simple steps.
1. Click on the the User Control Panel at the top of the screen (below board index)
2. Click on the Profile tab
3. Then click Edit Avatar
4. In the white box near Link off-site, paste the url of your avatar.
5. Click submit.
You should be good to go after that!

I am not using a url for my image. Maybe that is the problem. Is there a way to do it without a url?
