In change profile, options, I have my own pic, tick the box, type or copy and paste your URL avatar link in the box.
The avatars/pics have to be hosted elsewhere e.g., photobucket make sure the pics are also re-sized to avatar size, other wise it will not work. :y

Just to show you how, I've modified your profile to show our logo...

So, as stated, host your avatar somewhere on net (we recommend the free photobucket), then type in URL to that piccy (check your profile to see how I've done it for yours currently) :y

Have to made it private? It needs to be a public picture (ie so you can view it when logged out of photobucket)
