Ok I thought I uploaded my picture as my avatar. It turns out that it is my profile picture, which is fine. However, I'd like to make it my avatar as well. How do I go about doing that?

I'm not terribly computer literate here. Any help would be appreciated.

you dont get an avatar till youve done 100 posts

I imagine I could have read that somewhere but glanced over it. Thank you for the quick response luvitlong.

from the How To FAQ:

You must have at least 100 posts for an avatar.

Once you've reached 100, you may have to wait a few hours for the system to update. Then:
1) Log out of Lit
2) Clear your temporary internet files/cache
3) Close your browser (if you use multiple browsers, tabs, or windows, close them all)
4) Come back to Lit and log in
5) Go to the User CP>Edit Avatar
6) Refresh the page.
7) Click the Browse button, and upload the file.

***Your image can't be more than 150 pixels in the largest dimension or greater than 15.0 kb, whichever is smaller. If you need image editing software, many people here recommend a free program called Irfanview .
