Hi guys, Spider here.
Sorry to seem like a complete and utter nub but I've never really done avatars before and I don't really know how it works. I know it has to be less that 50 Kbs, however, does it have to be sized or does the site do that for you? Also, how do you insert a graphic into your sig? I've tried but only thing I can find is to get one online cause it won't let me use a pic from my computer. Halp plx! Thanks a bunch ^.^

Avatars have a max filesize limit of 50kb, so if you can make a 1024+1024 image thats less than 50kb go ahead  , the images will be scaled down to the correct size automatically. Anyway, it looks like you managed to get your image avatar working.
As for the sig you need to navigate to the Forum settings page (Under your name to right click Edit>Forum).
You need to upload your sig image to an ftp or website.
You will now need to edit your signature, click the insert image icon and link to the url where your image is uploaded. Don't make it too huge or offensive and you should be fine.

Blazer, your picture must be less than 50kb, check the filesize and try make it below that 50kb and it should work. Also...for now it must be a gif file!

Files "should" now work if they are jpeg also, but they still must be below 50kb (Avatars)
