Avatars! (No, not the movie)

I'm having some problems with the avatar function - I was going to upload a photo, but the avatar section does not have any fields to allow me to upload anything. I tried using the "contact" function in the User CP, but haven't received a response. Any help, oh wise moderators?

Sorry for the difficulty. Please try this instead:
Click on: User CP (in the nav bar at the top)
Click on: “Edit Avatar” (under Settings & Options)
Follow the directions to upload an image (Option 2).
Be sure to save your changes.
If this doesn't work, please let us know.
