Adding an Avatar
An avatar is a small picture that sits under your profile name and info when you post to a forum.
Most runboard users like to keep avatars small so they don't distort the forum width too much so try and keep it to the default setting of 60x60 pixels.
Some boards have this setting disabled so you can add a larger image, but if you do decide to use a slightly larger image, I'd go for a maximum size of 80x80 pixels.
You can see how big someone's avatar picture is by right-clicking on it and select 'Properties'. At the bottom of this window you will see the 'Dimensions', this will show you the size of that avatar.
How to upload your avatar
1. Control Panel
2. Change miscellaneous options
At the top of the page you will see the setting option
1. Paste the URL from your image host site into the window
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and press 'Save Settings'
If you decide to change your avatar to different one, all your posts on your own runboard and other runboards you have posted to will change to the new one

Re: Adding an Avatar
Note: When adding a URL from a image host, use the Direct URL, don't use any Forum tags
