There are two different possibilities, the avitar on the left and in the signature line.

Click on the "PROFILE" tab almost directly above.  That will bring you to your profile page.  Click on the link on the left side that says "Forum Profile Information" someplace around the middle.

From there you can change your avitar to someone far away like mine:

or you can change it to one of the default avitars (thanks to one of the artists at ILM who had just enough time on his hands for the image  ;D ).

You can also put forum text into the signature block, so that an image would look just like an image in the forum post:

[ img ]web path to image [ / img ]

But with no spaces...

I tried several times and it keeps saying my files are too large.

The attachment upload directory is not writable.This is what I get when I try to post a photo on my profile.

You have to post a link to a photo, which is what I did.  I have my actual photo housed on my site.

Thanks Brian but I have no idea how to do that so I asked my daughter and she has no clue either.
