go to Profile>Modify Profile>Forum Profile, and the screen will have an option for adding an avatar. It should be sized to 135 pixels wide.

Hi ,Thanks for the quick reply, I do not have a option to modify profile the only thing on my profile page is online, show posts, show stats. Does being a new member have a limit on my accounts? thanks

Here's some screen caps. I don't think the options really stand out as obvious, so you might be missing them. Took me a while find them way back when.

acudadude,
you need 5 posts in order to edit your profile.  this was a recent change i was forced into.  i dont like it, but its to stop spammers who sign up just to put porn links in their sig.  i guess 3 posts is probably close enough, so ill drop the limit down to 3 now.  you should be able to edit it then.
