To get your own avatar host it on imageshack or photobucket then copy the URL and paste it in the "I have my own" area in your profile.
If you see an avatar you did a search for click on the link then go to the direct image link (I do ask.com)

(avatars will always be resized to 65X65 pixels)
Signature: A signature is at the bottom of your every post. It can have just words or can be a graphic.
To get your customized signature go to paint or another customizable program and make it to fit the sig size (480X80) Then save the image. Convert it to a jpg, gif, or some other form and then go to imageshack or photobucket again, host it, copy URL, paste with this at the beggining of link [*IMG]linky[*/IMG]
