Avatar Photo

(note that the photo needs to be SMALL – 145x145 pixels)
After you login, be at the main Truck Forum page and select “My Profile”
Scroll down to the “My Avatar” field and select “Upload my picture”
In the window that pops up, select “choose file” and browse to find the image on your computer

You can either use image editing software (Photoshop, Corel Photopaint, etc), or -if you use windows- you can download a free utility, Image Resizer, from here:

Or, if you send me the image, I'd be happy to scale it down for you and send it back
