Check out the instructions in http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/misc.php?s=&action=faq&page=1#avatar

Go to Your Options and then into Edit Options

Follow the advice for changing the avatar. Make sure that you don't exceed 50x50 pixels adn that it is in .gif format.

:thumbsup:

Make a graphic that you want to have as an avatar, resize it to the allowed dimensions (nowt bigger than 50 by 50) and save it as a .gif file, then upload it to somewhere on the web, and in the bit where you get to select custom avatars in your profile here, type in a link to wherever your avatar is uploaded, such as www.xyz.co.uk/images/avatar.gif then click OK at the bottom of the screen.

Hope that helps.
