I went into Home >> User Account -> Edit, and noticed that I could Upload a picture of myself. The only difficulty was "Maximum dimensions are 85x85 and the maximum size is 200 kB."

So, I went into Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. I opened the photo I wanted to use. As the photo had to be pretty small to upload I started by using the crop tool to select a smaller area of the photo. Once I selected an area I used edit>>cut, and then file>>new from clipboard. With that new image I went into file>>save for web, set the height to 85 and the file type to png-24 and saved.

Now with my new small photo is was a really simpe thing to upload my picture, and presto - that darn picture of my shows up next to all of my postings. That might drive me nuts. I may have to rethink the whole User Image thing.
