Looks pretty straight forward to me. Good idea to put this up.

You can skip steps 1 and 2 once you've signed up so i guess that makes it quicker.. It take about 5 minutes max to do it mate.

you need to put in your avatar to the actual boostedfalcon website. if you goto your user control panel you upload it ther, but it has to be a rediculously small image size, but it seems normal quality anyway. if you cant get it small enough send it this way and ill reduce it for you then send it back.

The only problem with imageshack is you dont have control over your own photo's once they've been uploaded.. (thats from memory from what i did a while ago though)

To put in an avatar
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Go to User Control Panel
Image

2) Click on the Profile tab
Image

3) Click edit Avatar
Image

4) Easiest way to upload a pic is to browse your computer for the picture you want as your avatar. Remember it has to be a maximum of the following width 120 pixels, height 120 pixels, file size 78kB. So resize the picture using paint or whatever before you upload it.
Image

Now you're done.
