Right click on the picture and save it to your computer to save it, then upload it in the Custom Avatar area. As for viruses--it's almost impossible to attach a virus to a picture, and Cami wouldn't do that. There's no worry of a virus. I save pictures to my comp all the time, and I've never had a virus.

I linked this thread to the Signature and Avatar sticky at the top of our board for future reference.

Thanks, Nethilia~
I didn't think viruses could easily be attached to pictures. Of course, not all of us really know how computers actually work, LOL. It's a mystery to me sometimes. [img]wink.gif[/img]
