It's a small picture, like an icon, that you can specify for your user profile and will appear whenever you submit or reply to a forum topic, or make comment on area of the web site. In time, others get to recognise your posts by the avatar as opposed to your username.

Go to 'View Account' and click the 'Avatar' button. From there you can upload a picture of your own choosing (providing it is not larger than 100X100 pixels), or you can select one of the many avatars provided by www.lost-doggies.com towards the bottom of the same page. Alternatively, visit www.avatarity.com or any other avatar web site to choose your own from their libraries.

Are you registered? If not, do so. You will not be able to do most things unless you are a registered user. This ensures the site and its members are protected.

Click the 'Partners' menu option in the main menu on the left, and then click 'Become a partner', and enter your details to request a partnered link.

Only sites that have a similar and close aim to this one will be considered.
