1. Open the picture.
2. Right click on the picture.
3. Highlight and copy the URL address from the center of the screen that pops up.
4.Open "My Controls" at the top of the Message Board.
5. On the lower left had side of that screen, click on "Edit Avatar Settings"
6. Paste the URL into field that says URL. (Remember to make sure that "URL://" only appears once in the address.)
7. Click on "Update Avatar"

Your done. If you want to use a image that is on your computer, skip copying the URL and just use "Browse" Field instead.

Make sure you copy the complete URL. Sometimes a URL can drag on for three lines. Scroll down a little as you highlight the URL. The extension should end in .jpg or .png.
