Step 1

Settings > Edit Avatar > Check "Use Custom Avatar" option > Option 1 - Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website <or> Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer > Click "Save Changes" button.

(Your avatar must be smaller than 125 by 125 pixels/97.7 KB)

Step 2

Settings > General Settings > (scroll down) Thread Display Options > Check "Show Avatars" option > Click "Save Changes" button.

uh it still isnt showing. Is it because it is too big?

Maybe. Or an incorrect URL was entered (in case you chose Option 1). Either option 1 or 2, the image must show up in "Settings > Edit Avatar > Your Current Avatar" box if it was successfully uploaded.

If it's just a regular pic like a jpeg or a png, it should automatically be resized to fit within the minimum file and picture size. Right? If it's an animated gif, that's a whole different story.
