Is there a section on this board that can walk me through it? I guess I need to resize a picture to use it. I can do a few basic things on the computer, that's it.

This place will shrink whatever picture you want off of your computer. Be sure to set it to shrink them to 100x100 instead of the 200x200 it is automatically set for. Download the picture to your computer than sign in to CT go to User CP and then upload the picture.

Hope this helps.
