What you need to do is re-create your avatar at that site, download it to your own computer, then upload it to the forum as your avatar in your profile. Let me know if you have any trouble. Good luck.
I use an iPad so would that same process work? Every site seems a bit different.

If you can download the file to your iPad, then yes. You should also be able to upload it from the iPad to the forum. Give it a try and let us know how you make out. I'm sure you aren't the only member using a phone or tablet to access the forum.

As requested, pics below. I really like Skinners products! The front sight is much nicer than the factory original, and gives a bit more sight picture than the round bead.

Thanks! If you look close in the second pic, you can see the rear dovetail that I made my own filler for. I used a non-permanent and non-traditional method which was originally going to just be for my hunting trip next week, but it blends so well I may just leave it.

Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.

It looks like some sort of transparent tape; maybe shipping tape. Whatever it is, it looks good.
