RE: Avator
Ok ... let's go over this again , on your profle page towards the bottom where it say avatar you have three choice's to choose from.
1 you can click to upload your own picture , 2 you can click to choose one from the web sites file or 3 you can click to not have an avatar.
If you click on upload your own it should show a little black dot in the top circle are ya with me so far .
Once you have done that , try it again and see if that works .
Remember to click ok and wait for it to say upload successful then click ok agan , then go to the bottom of the page and click apply.
