i am trying to add a picture someone made for me of my avatar appear when i post in forums, but im technology challenged. help please?

I suggest reading the sCode Reference it's Forums. c:

I've moved this to Help & Questions, because it is a forumset question and has nothing to do with your actual HA.

It looks like you used the wrong link. Try using

instead of what you have now.

Thanks a million

No problem, glad I could help =]
