now as they have removed the option for uploading an AVATAR from pc you have to do it from the web frist thing you need to do is to find a pic in the web,
THE BEST THING FOR THAT IS TO GO TO GOOGLE AND SEARCH FOR AN IMAGE AND YOU CAN FIND A CHOOSE ONE FROM THERE
you can put the pictur's direct link providing the pictur is not big (i.e. it does not take 600 X 800 ). if you got a pic in your pc and want use that you have to use a website to host your image here is on website
http://www.imagevenue.com/
(just to let you know this website does not host [gif] images if you want use a gif google image hosting website there are alot of them nowdays) anyway afghanmania avatar does not disply igf images.
when you hosted your pic copy and paste (when you copy and paste the link make sure that it looks like this
http://img20.imagevenue.com/img.php?loc=loc96&image=th_1be_bike1.JPG (right)
and not like this
[IMG]http://img20.imagevenue.com/loc96/th_1be_bike1.JPG[/IMG] (wrong)
and click submite (absenden) it takes you to the another page and display your pic now if you bring your mouse pointer insid the picture the shape of the pointer changes to this (+) now if you take the pointer to any top corner of the pic and hold down the right hand click on your mouse (like highlighting), bring your pointer down iy higlights a part of picute it will show as your avatar if you not happy click the pic the highlite vanishes and you can try highliteing it couple more time till you like it when that happen click the create avatar button and you are done
IMPORTENT YOU MUST HIGHLITE YOU PICTURE OR IT WILL SHOW AS A BLACK BOX
good luck everybody.
