I think if you hover over the LiveCloud logo (top left), in the drop down menu there is
"Your Site"
Click on that it takes you to another page on which you'll find "profile"
Click on "edit profile" and there you can upload an avatar picture.
I am not sure about what sort of size you need though. Perhaps do it by trial and error.
Let us know if I am wrong, or have not explained it well. 

Gawd its been awhile but they have ones on here you can choose from or you can upload one from your come by pressing browse....

Just realised that if you click on your own name it takes you to the edit profile page.

Erin, go to the LiveCloud logo, then click 'Your Site' then 'Edit Profile' 9might need to scroll a bit here) find the big box that says primary picture and click edit. Find yourself a picture (from whatever site you like) and import it in the normal fashion.

Oops! Forgot that.

where are the pictures/Avatars you can choose from?
Your site :done
Edit  profile: done
? next

Generally the site resizes the pictures as necessary.

There were when GaGa was independant, but I don't think there are now.

Click on the little edit icon to the right of the avatar, then browse your computer.
As Fluffy has said, I think you now load your own rather then a LiveCloud library.

I thought you'd never ask Erinp

Find a good pic from the internet and save it to your computer first. You can google actual avatar sites.....or nick any pic you want from anywhere really.

As brisket has said, have a look on your pc. I use Windows XP, so my pictures tend to be in the Documents/My Pictures folder.

If you you can't find one then find one on the web and save it on your pc.

Ideally you want a picture which is 100 by 100.

Thanks everyone,feels much better.

Looking good Erinp Nice choice
