How do you load your own avatar?

I see others who have their vehicles for avatars but can't figure out how that is done?

Hey rattlehead, I'll help you with the avatar deal but first tell me about the M45. What does it have for a bed? Curious minds want to know! OK, when you got to your profile look at the little window by the avatar. You can copy in a URL for a picture there and that will be your avatar. Yes, if you want to use a pic of your own stuff, you will need to have it hosted online. I use Photobucket as an online host for my pics!

Thanks, I will have to look into posting pics online.

The "camper" is a water purification unit that has been stripped of all equipment. There are no furnishings/equipment in it at this time due to lack of funds. In fact I had to strip out the interior walls due to a water leak I found this spring, destroyed the insulation and the wood backed interior aluminum skin. I replaced all the closed end rivets in the roof, about 350 of them, and sealed each one with epoxy paint for added measure. Did get to use it this year for camping, but just threw in some cheap carpeting and an air mattress to get me by.

Man, am I good or what? I suspected that it was a purification unit. Those bodies are plenty cool with the opeining left side and a man door on the right. I'll bet alot of our listers has never seen one of those. I bid on 5 of them at Cape Canaveral many years ago! Does it still have the winch or did it get "Stolen?"

It already had the winch when I bought it. I didn't know the water purification units existed either until I saw it one day. I had been drooling over the M109's with a camper project in mind for a couple of years, and definitely wanted a winch. When I saw this one, with winch, and the extra storage space over the cab and side opening, I just had to make it happen. Wasn't really the best time for me financially to buy one, but couldnt pass it up!
