how do i get an avatar

[no_doz]

i have an avatar i want to use, but when i go to try and put it on, it says the use of them has been disabled???

We dont use avatars here, we use sigs.

then how do u all get those pics to come on everytime u post.

Its called a sig. You make one, then host it somewhere and when you have the URL to the pic, you put the url in your profile.

thanx slipknot, finally someone helpful and polite, i put in the url, but the pic isnt showing up, whys this?

[FooTemps]

simple... you need [img] tags... that's why

btw: i think slipknot actually had a rude response... he just edited it to be nice.

No, I never did. The little box with the red X in it was their because I had tried to but the IMG bracets with URL Here in it, it caused it to look like I was trying to get around the cuss filter.

put "" at the beginning and "" at the end.

thanx man

just remember- use the signature only ONCE per thread. (there's a button to click in the reply screen to do that.) It's common courtesy for dial up users.

ok, now i have the desired pic, but if i use it posted at digitalpose.com it has a bunch of white added, and now i put it in my msn profile and used the img tags, but now it comes up with nothing! anyone know why or a good place to upload this pic so i can use it as my sig?

I'll fix the background for you. Give me a minute.;)

(ignore the Colors)

If you put this in your sig, you'll have a pic of the pill in the your original size with a transparent background that looks like this:
