14) "How do I get a custom avatar?"

The ability to upload a custom avatar is granted to people with a Helpful or Creative title, ArchKnights, Moderators, and other staff members. It is also granted to some people for past service such as the old Grand Council, forum beta testing, etc. Advanced Roleplayers and other group members do not get upload rights unless they have it from some other source. Some official contests will have a specific avatar as a prize that is not available other forum members.
We limit custom avatars to certain people because otherwise the forums would be overloaded with even small images.

• The first way is really easy.If you see someone with a sig that you like just ask them if you can use it.
  
  
• The second way is to go over here Digital Art and Signatures and ask one of the sig shops to make you one.
  
  
• The third way is to find a picture that you like and use a picture editing program like PhotoShop / MS Paint or Gimp (free download at http://www.gimp.org/ ) to make it into a sig.You can easily find free demos if you look on google.
  
  
• The fourth way is just the same as the third way except instead of finding a picture you can use a screen shot from the game. (see below for how to take screen shots)
  
  
• The fifth way is to go over here AQstats and make yourself a Stat Box sig.
