[Guide] How to get an avatar/upload images

[MasterXman]

This is just a topic that has a few easy steps to follow in order to get an avatar or upload an image.

Step 1. Go to imgur (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(FOR AVATARS). Go to User Control Panel, Profile, Edit Avatar
Step 5(FOR IMAGES IN GENERAL).  Go to the edit/reply/new topic button

Step 6(FOR AVATARS). Paste the direct link in the Url off site box.
Step 6(FOR IMAGES IN GENERAL). Click on the (IMG) button.

Step 7(FOR AVATARS). Press submit to add the avatar.
Step 7(FOR IMAGES IN GENERAL). Press preview to check if the image shows up. If it shows up then press submit.

These steps are easy to follow. Just follow them and you'll have an avatar/image soon.

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.

(click to show/hide)

Then, Go to the "Profile" View Button.

(click to show/hide)

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.

(click to show/hide)

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.

If only Cutmanmike could somehow do as my location says, this process could become MUCH simpler. Y/Y

Actually, this is more helpful than you think. You have no idea how many PM's I get with people asking me how to get an avatar.

I would never have guessed. I never get PM's about how to set an avatar. I must be the scary global mod no one wants to talk to.

I think it's Korby's monocle. Who doesn't love monocles?! :P

Hmm, maybe I'll get an avatar soon.

Nonsense, I'd never talk to someone with a monocle over you!  

Oh yes, kirbysonic. Your guide lacks information on how to resize avatars. And yes, there are people who need to know about that.

xxkirbysonicxx1: Nice guide  If you add Travis guide to your post, will be better.

[BiscuitSlash]

Also if you don't want to change the size of the avatar, then leave those values clear. It will set it on it's own then.

Surprisingly, I wrote that at almost 6 in the morning before 2 Pain-In-The-Ass Exams. But at least it explains the concept simply.
