Sorry...I know you veterans proabbly get ass-whipped by these type of questions, but why can't I post an avator on my profile? I went to the profile link and saw no field where I could apply an avator.
Will somebody point me in the right direction.

Go to your profile (in the red bar at the top). Scroll all the way down to the section called "Avatar control panel". Have at it.

I had the same problem. I forgot how I fixed it. I think I cleared the cache.

Try it now. Sometimes when people sign up, it doesn't enable the avatar option for them.

I heard from a friend that new members are not being shown a place for avatars when they sign up. A friend at work asked me and I brought mine up but when I went to her desk after she had just signed up, there was no place to add an avatar. Not sure if this is something PonyFans decided to do with new members or it is a flaw in the software?
Personally I like avatars because it gives posters a little character and uniqueness.

You know how you post a unique avatar? Unique up on it. How to post a tame avatar? The tame way.

Maybe "they" couldn't delete the avatars they didn't like, so they just deleted the link to post avatars.

It's just something that is wrong with the board configuration. No conspiracy here.
