Pick which picture you want. Use a graphics editing program to shrink it to 100x100 pixels or less. Save it as a JPEG so that it will be the right file size. Go to your profile. Upload the avatar.

You can only use a small picture. You have to make your pictures really small to use them.

try using photoshop, it's really easy. just open your pic in photoshop, go to "edit" -> "image size", and shrink it. then do a save as, and upload it

unfortunately you have to buy it .. unless you have a friend who has it. Or you can get it off the net somehow...and find a cd key for it
