Hi,
Been wondering the same thing myself, it's not as straight forward as i had hoped or as i have done before on other forums BUT
i figured it out!
1. seems your image needs to be 130px by 200px (just a guess but worked for me)
2. open an account @
https://imgur.com/ its free
3. create an album and up load the image to it
4. now click on the image in your
https://imgur.com/ account
5. the window in the previous post will open
6. click copy on the image link
7. hover over the icons above looks like a calendar opens up profile and click it
8. open forum profile information in the modify profile box to the left
9. now click on the i have my own picture button the paste the cod from
https://imgur.com into the window which has HTTP:// already in it
10. you need to keep HTTP:// and delete or edit HTTPS:// so it reads
HTTP://your image code here
11. scroll down and click the change profile button
12. click the change profile button a second time (that's what i had to do or my image disappeared)
