How to add an Avatar?

Don't do it Dave! It's a trap!

I don't think there's any "newbie" restrictions. I've found that the key to having a custom avatar on most boards is making sure that is small - in the case of COTEP.org, it should be 80x80 pixels, or less than 19KB - whichever is smaller.

You might need to tweak your picture with an editor - there are several free ones that are pretty good.

Oh sure, put me on the tinter hooks like that. Careful, you might be sent back to "mimber status", "shudder". I don't even own, like or could identify one but I got hung with the label.

I've never had a problem posting the avatar. The switch action won't let me get access to have a denial for size.
