Go to www.photobucket.com and upload your pictures. Once you do that I always open up another screen and bring up this site. Then you can do 2 things. When you open up the message that you want to put pictures in- you can click on the button on your message screen that looks like a photo (bottom row 4th from the left) and then insert your URL from the top line under your photo at photobucket (Just called URL: ) and then you can preview your message to see if it worked. The easier way is to just copy the IMG link at photobucket (3rd option under your photo) and paste it to your message.
I am sorry, I just realized you only asked for the avatar. If you go to the profile button at the top of your 8 Seconds screen you click on that. Then there is a link that says Modify Profile. If you go down to the avatar link you can put that first URL link from photobucket in that spot. Then you can mess with the height and width of the avatar to get it how you like it. Again, I like to preview my message before I post it so that way I can make sure it works. Otherwise you can go to the testing thread and post there to see what it will look like too.
It's really not that hard once you get the hang of it. After all that, hope it works!#comp2611#

Thanks Rossco. I figured out my avatar. Ok, I have one other question. How do you get the pictures under your message. Like you have Ross under yours. How did you get that. Thanks for all your help.

The Avatar smaller? You just have to change the dementions. Where it says Height and Width, you can make your Avatar smaller by making the numbers smaller. Did that help, or confuse you more?

After you have it uploaded to photobucket.. Click on the edit button above the picture!! Then it will say something about decrease by 10%, 20%, 50%. Just click on one of those and then put it in your sig again and see if it is any smaller!!
Hope that helps!
