After 100 posts I believe you can choose another avator that isn't the ones we had to originally choose from. Can anyone explain to me in as simple as possible directions,(man am I stupid when it comes to following directions with these laptops) how to post one from one of those free avators sites on here.I sure would appreciate the help!! My son says he can do it for me in two seconds,but waiting for a teens two seconds can be months lol! Any help would be appreciated thanks.

First make sure the avatar is not to large,then right click on the picture and go to properties and copy the url link.then go to edit options in myrc,choose change avatar,then paste the url link where it tells you to. thats it.
