This is just a topic that has a few easy steps to follow in order to get an avatar.
Step 1. Go to
imageshack (or photobucket)
Step 2. Register an account (this is optional. But if you wanna keep all those images you should register one)
Step 3. Upload an image from your images folder (also called Pictures folder)
Step 4. Copy the direct link
Step 5. Go to User Control Panel, Profile, Edit Avatar
Step 6. Paste the direct link in the Url off site box.
Step 7. Press submit to add the avatar.
These steps are easy to follow. Just follow them and you'll have an avatar soon.
Edit: You can also do this to post a screenshot. Minus steps 5, 6 and 7.
Quickbeamed edit: Look at this quote below for resizing avatars.

I can help with that.Firstly, Go to the Control Panel. You can get there VIA Either the "[# Of Messages] New Messages" Button or the User Control Panel.
Then, Go to the "Profile" View Button.
And Lastly, After hitting the "Edit Avatar" Button in the Profile view page, you can re-size the Avatar with the two Dialogue Boxes that are there.
Although, You can't go over 128 for Either Dimensions. But as long as you don't, you can use almost anything as your avatar.
