I was trying to remember how I did this, and I *think* this was how.... In photobucket choose the picture you want to use, and go to edit. In that screen choose resize (should be at top of screen somewhere) and set to required size. I think the forum stipulates 100x100 pixels but you might get away with the slightly bigger version, if not try the preset size of 'tiny' 100x75 pixels. Remember to save as a copy, because otherwise your original photo will be tiny!! From there copy and paste the full ULR (without the code) into the avatar box and hopefully that should work for you!

Thanks Rosie, still no luck! The URL has [\IMG] at the end of it - do i delete it out? I never have any luck on any forums with putting on thumbnails!

Which site are you using? In photobucket there is a choice of codes...choose the url one, not the image one. Other then that I am stumped!

Hmmm...I can't see the thumbnail thing you are talking about. I physically resized my picture using the edit function, then used the direct code (one of the four options when you open up the photo) it starts with http:// Want to email me your picture and I'll see if I can get you the code to paste??
