When I started posting about a week ago. One of the first thing that I tried to do was update my Avatar. I tried multiple times to use a URL from Facebook and Instagram since those were the most used of my Social Medias BS (Before Steemit). The problem was always the same though. It would show to be uploaded but my Avatar was just plain old white.
Then I found these guys: @shayne who posted a simple but very good article about how to update your avatar.

Actually he has quite a few good articles for beginners!
and @steemitguide who gives you the dimensions for good avatars and a different way to upload.

So here I am being a good student and posting my own avatars in a blog so that I will have a usable URL to enter into the avatar image space. :P
