how does one add that nifty icon underneath the screen name? (the quilt blocks, sewing machines, photos, etc.)

Thanks Bren.

I've been trying to import images from my documents, but everything i have seems to be too big. I don't like the exisiting avatars. Where can i find images small enough to fit in?

If you have an image program like Paint Shop Pro you can easily change the size of your pictures to be small enough.

Adva,

I did a search on 'avatar' and was given lots of places to browse. Look out there and you might be able to find something original that you like.

Adva,

I think this is where I got the hampster/mouse/rodent. I just erased my avatar by mistake. Guess I'll have to find it again. Oh well.

Adva,

Did you get it from the site that I suggested? It's a good one.
