Hi blounty...Welcome as a new member to AB.
You can establish an Avatar after you have been a member for fourteen days and have submitted ten valid postings. Consequently as you have already asked two questions and submitted what amounts to seven answers you have only to post one more comment to qualify ( on my calculation) for an Avatar on the 10/11th September.
Please post again if you have a problem with establishing an Avatar. I assure you that sir.prize, Trimeresurus and myself will be of assistance to you.
Ron.
