If you would like to use a picture of your own, it needs to be loaded onto the web somewhere like MSN groups, IVillage or Photobucket.
Once you have a photo online you right click on the big picture and copy the URL properties (much like preparing to post a photo in the DG).
Back in this forum you go to your profile (button at the top of the screen just below the logo), about half way down there is a box that says 'I have my own pic'. Paste the URL into that, retype your password at the top and your avatar should appear.
It only allows small pictures so be warned it might condense the photo in a strange way.

Admin, will we be able to access the IH members forum from here, or will that option be dissolved if this takes off.

The current plan is to keep the Members Forum as it is and the DG stay as an archive (readable but not postable) so the wealth of knowledge that is there will be kept . How this forum will be linked if people like it is still under discussion.
