Put it onto a public photo-sharing board, like www.photobucket.com, and use that link to the picture where it says "I have my own picture" This is the format line from mine:

It didn't show immediately. I logged out and back in, still no change. I'll maybe give the system a chance to update and check again. Thanks for the help.

Looking at your profile, I can't see where anything's been changed. You have to check the box that says, "I have my own pic", and enter the link to the photo. If you want to just send me the link in a pm, I can make the change.

Same thing for anyone else who'd like to link to a photo for their avatar. I don't mind doing that.
