To get your avatar to show up in the forums, do the following:
Go into a thread where you posted and under your name, click the word/link that says 'Member'. (It might say New Member, Senior Member, or something else. But it is right under your user name.)
Scroll to the right and you will see 4 boxes. They say: Profile, Favorites, Edit, Avatar.
Click on Avatar and upload your photo of choice.

I got tired of using the same old avatar for these forum posts,

so I switched to an actual photograph. 'Hope it doesn't cause any confusion.

That's it! (I knew that would be confusing.) LOL
Warped sense of humor, I guess.

Maybe you should move the post to the "What are YOU smoking" threads.

Thanks for the tips on how to get this to work...I successfully downloaded a different avatar pic on my profile, but was confused on why it didn't show up in my posts.

My I.Q. must have dropped. I've tried every trick I know to load an avatar. I've even optomized the file size. I even tried to load one that was only 10x10 still no go. It always wants me to crop, so I do and save, but still no avatar. What's the secret guys?

There are two avatars on the site. Your main one for the main site and a secondary one for the forums. You have to follow the instructions that I posted in the first post of this thread and it will upload your forum avatar.
