I cant get any pic for my avatar!

Its so annoying, I really want an eminem picture but none are jpegs. Why cant shtml or html extensions be used and why was the upload feature removed, that was so easy to use. Some one help out please, I hate my avatar, but dnt want none,

What extension were they? Uploading them uses the space here you know, so it had to be removed.

You need to find an image host and link it here. Example: Village Photos, Picstore.

thanks for your help great dude. Ive gone to villiage photos.com registered and uploading a pic. Now how do I make that my avatar?

shtml and html are not image types.
There is no such thing as an image having a .shtml or .html extension.
Just find out an image you like, save it to your computer, upload it to an image host and then link it here.
It's that simple.

Good free image hosts:

PicStore
Paulsonator.com
Boomspeed
Village Photos

Copy the URL of that pic.
Then go to 'My Controls' > 'Edit Avatar Settings' click on 'Your image avatars' and paste the image URL into the box.
