I'll just cut and paste what I wrote earlier in the thread:

There are lots of websites that offer free avatars. I can give you the address of a site, and you can browse through the avatars and see if there's any you like:

Forum Avatars at Avatarist

This particular site has thousands of avatars, that's why I chose it. If you find an avatar you like, right-click on it and select "save picture as...", and save it to a folder on your computer. Or if you're on a mac, click and hold down the mouse button and you will be given an option to save the image. Make sure you remember where you've saved it so you can upload it later on!

Once you have an avatar, upload by going to your profile page, "My Profile", then "Edit Photo", then click "Use Photo" and browse your computer to find the avatar and upload it.

Hope that helps.

Haha yeah that's a fun idea... an avatar contest... :)

I've always liked Sherman and Mr. Peabody from the old Rocky and Bullwinkle show. Here are 4 avatars I have of them:

I made up my screen name when I was thinking of naming my 2 youngest daughters which was a difficult feat after naming my oldest Jessamyn. But sadly my husband did not like it there for they were named Akiryanna and Krissalyn. I needed a screen name for AOL and kept drawing a blank until I can back to tiffinity thought it still needed something so rose was added and there it was. My avatar is a Detroit tiger for my favorite team in baseball.
