I'm sorry Ze, thanks for replying, but I still dont get ya! I'm not that intelligent when it comes to computers, I just draw stuff!

On the Avatar editing screen theres two boxes (like you dont know!?!

)

I uploaded my jpg to a website (recommended by frieda) and put the address into the first box:

" You can enter an URL of your avatar: "
Note: this will be stored locally on the server

But the screen I mentioned in my first post came up.

Can someone pretend they're explaining this to a 7 year old (I might understand then!!)

Thanks xXxX
