Ok, so probably a really stupid question that's been answered like a hundred times before, but how do you make the cool avatars? I can't get them. It won't let me. So either I'm doing it wrong, or my computer is messed up in the head (again). HELP!

Make them or have them on LEIA? If about the latter, you need 500 posts to have an avatar on LEIA.

Yep, and it's mentioned here: http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum/showthread.php?p=485022#post485022 :)
