Re: Avatar pic help?
At the top of the page, you have your username, Control Panel, Inbox, etc.
Click on control panel. Then go to Misc. settings. From there you will find several options "Forum signature; Forum Options; Avatar, Location, Bio..." - Click on "Avatar, Location..." and at the top there should be a blank field. Keeping this page in one tab...
Now go to google or FB and find the pic you want to use as an avatar. Save it to your computer and upload to either Photobucket, IMGShack, etc.- then get the DIRECT link (make sure you don't use the smaller, thumbnail version or it'll kill the quality) - Once you have the direct link copied (should end in something like .jpg or .png - NOT .php or .html) then head back over to your control panel at BotB and paste that URL into the field where it says "Avatar" - Save then voila! Now check this post on the forum to ensure it worked!
