What a great idea!! I didn't know this before, but Sassy2724 and I registered on the same day - I always knew she was a cool gal!

Pinkylee - I had problems adding an avatar in the beginning as well, and now I upload a new one every week! First, have you had a chance to create an avatar? You can create one at
www.thedollpalace.com or at avatar.yahoo.com. Once you create one, choose to save it onto you computer. From here, you can upload it as a file under the "Forum Profile Information" link under your profile. Have you tried all this yet?
