I was thinking that "UPLOAD AVATAR" would take the pic from my local machine? Or is that my poor booze addled brain trying to impose its own special logic on the rest of the universe?

Geez I feel at home already. hic.

You are probably trying to uplink from a site that doesn't allow linking. Geocities, for example.
Try uplinking from a free picture hosting site. Most of us use http://www.digitalpose.com . Or just PM or e-mail it to Giles and he'll add it to the available avatars.

Now that is a nice avatar. Simple and descriptive of most of us.

Uploading avatars just doesn't always work right in PHPBB. I run a PHPBB (version 2.0.6) on my site, I have the directory permissions perfect, and it still rarely works. /geeking
Glad you eventually got the avatar up, looks good.
