Can someone explain to me what the problem was? I am computer illiterate.

Instead of me downloading the image from the web site I found it at, I just linked to it. So anytime someone went to view anything I posted a command would go the that website to send the image to you. That places a demand on their server and potentially slowing it down, etc.

 

The absolutely correct thing to do is

A. Ask permission to use the image from the web master

B. Save it to your computer

C. Upload it to here or a picture server that accepts this usage.

Oh, so if I just copy the URL, am I doing what you did? Should I save it on my computer instead?

If you save your avatar and then go to the help forum or even here, attach the image and then redo the avatar pointing to here.

 

I attached you avatar to this post so you could cut and paste for your avatar.

 

This way if mlb drops that pic, you'll still have it as your avatar.
