An avatar is what you call your “forum photo”. All of you can customize your avatars by following these few simple steps:
• Click on the Account drop-down on the upper right-hand corner of your forum page. Choose to go to your
User Info page.
• On the Avatar area, click on the Change link.
• Choose to Use Your Own avatar.
• Select the image you want to use from your computer and click on OK.
• When you're all done uploading your avatar, make sure to click on SAVE.
Note: The avatar upload will require Adobe Flash Player 9 to function properly. If you don't have the flash player upgrade, the screen will prompt you to download and install the upgrade first before you can change your avatar.
Also, you cannot customize your avatar during the registration process. You will need to complete your registration and activation first, before being able to use this function.
