When you log in with your account go to User control panel top left corner, click on it, then click on profile, then click on edit avatar.
From there you can upload a small picture from your pc to use an avatar or select an avatar in the display gallery of the forum

There is a restriction on the size of photos you can use, I think its 120 X 120 pixels.
Basically you will need to re-size (shrink) your photo down using Microsoft paint or some other kind of photo editor.
Microsoft paint would probably be the easiest to use.
