I finally got a picture to come up, but I can't seem to change my avatar to it.

Hi everyone, I finally got a picture to upload to my profile page. But I can't get it to go to my avatar. I don't want the generic one anymore. Browse for my avatar keeps coming up my pictures file in my computer. I try to save my picture to that and it won't take it. Drives me crazy. Any ideas? My profile page will take anything I scan in under jpeg. But the avatar wants something else.

You have to use a gif or a jpg. They will not accept a bmp. You have to check on myLot's guidelines, then upload your avatar making sure it is small enough.

In your picture file, hit 'save as...' and change it to a 'gif'... this has allowed me to put in a lot of things I couldn't get otherwise!
