Click here: ucp.php?i=profile&mode=avatar

When you find an image you like, right click on it, click properties or view image info, copy the url under location....

Go back here: ucp.php?i=profile&mode=avatar

Under "Link off-site:" right click in the box and click paste. Be sure the image is within the size requirements. You may have to click submit a handful of times for the avatar to appear.

The URL you specified is invalid.
I can not download any picture from my PC.
And when I past and copy pictures title and location in link off site I get URL you specified is invalid.
I dont seam to have an option to download pictures from my PC as my avatar.

If you want to use a picture that's on your PC you need to upload the picture to a site like photobucket.com

A site like that will host the picture for you and create a URL that can be used here.

I thought it was possible to upload photos from PC like it is on Facebook and similar programs.

But when I find a picture I like on the internet, its only part of the page and not the entire page, so I can not just write in picture URL? Besides picture would be big?
Do you know a web site that has small pictures that are user friendly for a program like this?

It only allows you to type or copy/paste the URL to the picture.

You know how to find the URL to a picture, correct?

Don't forget to get James Cameron's expressed written consent.

And don't let M Night Shyamalan even know about it.
