Status: offline 		I'm searching for good wallpapers sources to keep up my fighting spirit.
I found some here and there but maybe someone knows a real good source with pics in high resolution and with appropriate size so it fits good on a 1920x12000 TFT.
I thought about something in this way:

Well who can beat her pair?

I'm honored! I don't know, I doubt it as I cast off originals once I do the avatars, but I will see what I can find.

Make sure its the right size ( mine is 76 x 100 ) . Make sure it is in a place that you can pull it from ( my avatar is in the standard " My Pictures " folder in Windows ). Now go to to " My Profile " above, drop down to the section that says " My Avatar ", click on " Upload my picture ", browse to where your avatar is, click on your avatar, and you are done. I think. If it doesn't work, then I forgot something.
