    Talking Re: Icon

    Yups. After 45 post you can make your own custom icon. But you can still add one from the list under the Edit avatar option.
    And I think that after 50? post you become a member. After 100? post you become a senior member.

    How do you actually create them?

    There are instructions next to the uploading area, but basically you need to find/make a .jpg or .gif file (most common) and upload it. Or download it from somewhere else to your hard drive, THEN upload it.

    I mean, it's making or finding a 50x50 or smaller graphic that you like, it's not that arcane and mystical.

    if by 'create them' you mean make your own, you need a decent graphics program, preferably one with the ability to resize an object. that way you could work larger for more detail then shrink it down to 50 x 50. paint shop pro is real good for that kind of work, it even has an animation studio or if you feel like spending some money get corel draw, thats really sweet.

    yeah, me pretty sure it's when you get 30 posts, you get the 'Member' status - as I got 30 posts up recently and became one.
