Custom Avatar installation procedure.

Took some brow beating but here is an outline of what I did.

1. Google "Avatar" and find something you like.
2. Copy and paste it to your picture folder in you document file on your C drive,or any folder.
3. Hit --- Go on the main tool bar.
4. Hit -- Personal Zone
4. Hit -- Profile
5. Hit -- Edit Complete Profile
6. Next to Avatar / Picture URL Hit -- Edit
7. Hit --- Custom Avatar (top right)
8. Browse you Pictures in the Document file and
Rt. click the Avatar you downloaded to the Pic
File and Rt. click select at the top of the action box.
9. Go back to the Avatar Selection screen and
The address to the selected file should
be highlighted in the Browse
Box. (If no address appears in the BROWSE BOX you will not get the AVATAR.)
10. Hit ---- Update Avatar

** Some of the animated Avatars will take a couple of min. to download so give it some time before thinking it did not work. Sometimes you will have to repeat #8 & #9 above.

That should do it. I am not real computer literate and did a lot of stumbling working this out so it may not be perfect but this will give you a usable jump start. Good luck.
