| Well if you use an image from the internet, highlite the url address of the image, and then copy and paste the url in the image text box in your profile. |

Yep. Needs a url address. You have to grab the image from the Internet because this site is on the www. |

| Well, grabbing any image url that you see is not a very nice thing to do. Each time you display that image, you are stealing bandwidth. As a webmaster myself, this irritates me. However, you can download the image you like and then upload it to a site like photobucket. Then, you can link to it without stealing bandwidth. Just go up to Profile and find the Avatar area. |
