This is on the avatar page.
If you have more than 0 posts, you may also specify your own custom avatar.
I imagine that the 0 is incorrect. The page has 0 posts for using the supplied avatars and 0 posts for supplying your own. What is the correct number for supplying your own? I tries to supply my own and it didn't appear to be allowed. I hope it's not operator error... Thanks.

That is correct, anyone with 0 posts or more can create a custom avatar. Are you by chance doing this behind a firewall? There is a slight problem with uploads and some firewalls on this site, if this is the case, send your avatar to my email address (bikeforums@yahoo.com) as an attachment, i'll add it to your profile.

Thanks Joe, I'll try to upload it from a different location. If that doesn't work I'll send it to you via email.
