avatar question. retarded yes.

[jmitchell42]

hey,
i can't figure out how to put an avatar on here. i tried twice, and got no message as to whether it was too big or not. once i posted the URL (granted i got that right), it just went to the "My Home" screen and there was still no avatar. i don't know for sure if it is just too big, but some of the ones on here, esp. with animation, seem like they would be too big too. any help would be appreciated for this really stupid question.
thanks
james
