    The pic needs to be 80x80 max in size and under 10kb I think.

    Google '80x80 avatar' or something, to give you an idea of the size of files you can use.

    As it's the CC, I'll happily design one for you, but it would be a picture of a penis. Or a lime.

    Just don't ask about Rhyl, fully mong, Sheepsteeth or jarred liver and you'll be fine :lol:

    I believe Sheepsteeth's mum lives in Rhyl.

    She looked like a Gary or a Steve. It didn't last long, she was seeing someone else.
