No, there are no avatars here. What you want is a signature. Note that the forum rules ask that the picture be no larger than 500x100 pixels.

You would copy and paste the image code into your signature. Resize the pic appropriately before uploading it.

glc is correct. That is a 'signature'. The size limit is to keep the pages loading smoothly and easily from various accessibility portals (mobile, etc).

Yep, you need to use resizing software and reduce the pic size to about 500x100.

Nice Scab! Set your camera to take small thumb nails.
