This has been gone through loads of times....

Upload your pic to your photos archive on here (make sure its less than 200pixels wide). Then open the pic in your archive.

Right click on the picture and click properties.

Select the image URL and copy it (Ctrl+C).

Paste (Ctrl+V) the URL into the avatar URL box in your profile.

Ok how did you get that cat image to apear at the bottom?

Go to your profile settings and in the bit where you put your signature put the image url with the necessary [ img] and [/ img] tags then the image will appear in your signature....if you are feeling flash you can also make it a link to a website by combining some BBcode. Like this (this is the stuff for my sig but modified with space so it doesnt show pics!)

This should be what you need to make your linky buuton work

exclude the space before url and img

put it in your signature box

worked for me!
