What to do once you've got that:
On the 'Change Forum Preferences' screen, simply click 'Browse...' and find the image on your system. Select it. Then click 'save forum preferences'. Your image will be uploaded and processed. Note that your avatar will not be immediately visible on the site! It must be "approved" by one of the moderators first. This usually takes less than 24 hours.

Let me break this down for Francis.

Dear Francis,

You will need to go to a photo uploading web service similar to:

tinypic.com

photobucket.com

imageshack.com

flickr.com

With all these sites except tinypic, you upload your photos to a massive gallery you maintain. With tinypic, you just upload the pic to their servers and they provide you with options for posting your image. Typically, one of the options is a photo URL.

Example: hxxp://tinypic.com/pics/t...kalbum.jpg

You take this link and bring it to Prince.org. Make a new thread or reply to an existing one and then click the 8th icon in the 2nd row of Response icons. Looks like a tree landscape. Put the URL in the provided space and leave blank any options you don't understand/know how to manage.

You can also just type [ img ] (place your URL here) [ / img ] (remove spaces)

Hope that helps...

That's where I lost you. What is the address to Prince.org and can I get there by bus?

Ask the bus driver what stop to get off at, they're helpful.
