how do put an image under user name

[drksails]

Sorry this sounds dumb, and I know there is no such thing as a dumb question only dumb people but, how do I post an image under my handle/user name? I've been using RC for over a year but never thought about it til now.

Click on the MyRC button at the top of the page. Go to Edit Options and scroll all the way down to the bottom. There should be an Avatar option there for you. You choose one of the images they have there, or you once you have a 100 posts you can customize your own.

You have to have 100 posts, you only have 15. The idea is that you are rewarded for contributing to the content of the forums, not just posting LOL or fluff posts to bump up your count.
Also, if you frequent the RC Lounge forum, those posts don't count because they are fluff by definition.

I think if you pay to join ($25 or so annually I think) you get to put a picture (avatar) and you get some extra features like search and spell check. You also get the cool little "I support RC" tang.
