Should be able to go to personal settings, profile, in the right hand corner it should say view/edit profile, then you should be able to put your avatar. Try to keep it simple the more complicated the more memory ect.. it takes and we have to keep it down so there is enough space and don't have to pay extra for the forum.Welcome.

While this thread is technically in the wrong section of the forum I'll go on ahead and answer it for you.Using your mouse hover over the Go tab at the top left of your tool bar then go to profile click that then go over to the right where it says View/Edit profile click that, next you'll need to scroll down to the Avatar/Picture URL section click the edit button.This will bring up a page of preset avatars or if you wish you can use a picture from your computer as a custom avatar.You can't use adult themed avatars ie violent, explicit or otherwise adult in nature and we do not allow moving or scrolling avatars as this eats up extra bandwidth and is very distracting when trying to read posts.I hope this helps if you have any other questions please feel free to ask.

@jenok, I actually thought that was one of our preset avatars you are using, where did you get it?Technically its still in violation of our no moving avatar rule but the rule is more for large avatars like hatching dragons which are moving GIF files and these files eat up a ton of bandwidth on the forum.
