It does take a little time to get used to it, but it is a great information and purchasing tool. 

I do notice that lots of people have not yet uploaded their avatar for their profile.  I love seeing whatever you chose for that avatar AND I can recognize who I like to talk with faster with that avatar.

 An avatar can be a picture of your you, your pet, a great landscape or even a design that is your favorite.  Your imagination is key.  I look forward to seeing all the avatars soon!

If you need assistance to do the upload, see this link for instructions:  http://www.annthegran.com/cs/forums/p/406/898.aspx#898
