In the profile section, there is an option called "I have my own pic" which allows you to check a box, then fill in the next box. If I want to upload an avatar, do I just give it the path on my computer or do I have to do something different.

I was kind of wondering how that worked, too.

i would assume that it's like most sites, and you have to upload the picture to a location on the internet and then put the link to it.
if you just put the path on your computer it will come up blank for everyone else because we don't have the picture in that location
i know there are a handful of free hosting sites that you can put stuff on if you just google something like "free picture hosting" it would probably come up with a few

You indeed have to upload the image to the internet, and post the url in the 'I have my own pic' blank. That said, as far as I'm concerned, Photo Bucket is the way to go. www.photobucket.comI basically spend my free time making avatars and PB has been nothing but wonderful for me.

Actually, your avatar is stored at my website. In the few weeks since I purchased the site, I've been storing everything there.
Plus, the free version of Photo Bucket has a size limit of 250 kilobytes and as it turns out, eleven second video avatars end up sizing around 566.73 kilos.

I PMed him but he never responded. Makes me sad... I want one too.. Arg, I hate making people sad... and now MarketedElixir is in Atlanta... and I'm in Atlanta... and she might have been the one that I ran over with my shopping cart at the store today (thus making her even sadder). What do you think the odds are that she wears a MarketedElixir t-shirt wherever she goes? I'd like to apologise to her in person if I could. That said, my apologies for leaving Barenaked Randomness for many months are voiced in the Artwork thread of the Creative Corner. I would be utterly honoured to make the three of you (and anyone else) your avatars... and anything else you want. Let me know as to any ideas you have, and I'll get back to you soon... I promise.

thanx Josh... Okies after some thinking I've come up with some ideas
fave video clip: Pinch Me Fave song: War on Drugs Fave lines from a BNL song: "Exotic pet like a llama or an emu" or "To get drunk in a bar with some Australians"
that may give something to work with Josh...
