Hi Shawn, there are several ways.

First, the photographs that you wish to show need to be onto a website on the internet. This can be done for free by setting up an account at http://www.photobucket.com

The other option would be to purchase a subscription on this website, which offers several benefits, including an album in the photo gallery where you can upload your photos to. FWR subcription information can be found at:

Once your photographs are on the internet, each photo will have a web address, or URL.

To use one of the photograph for your profile photo, go to your profile by clicking on . Once you are in your profile, click on Forum Profile Information on the left. Select "I have my own pic:" and enter your photo's URL into the field next to it. One suggestion, use a small photo for your profile display pic (150px X 100px is ideal).

Information on how to post a photo in your post can be found at:

For more information, you can email me at info@fishingwithrod.com.
