Find me a pic you like of an eyelash viper (making sure it's not copywritten or you have permission of the photographer to use it for an avatar) and I'll happily run it through my little avatar program for you. Then all you do is save it to your desktop then go into User CP here...pick Change Avatar....go down to the second slot at the bottom where it says to get an image from your computer...click Browse...then Upload....as long as the avatar is sized right...bingo...nice new avatar.
