You have 30 days to upload your avatar before we post one for you and trust us you won't like it. Your avatar appears in your profile and in your posts. Upload any picture you like but it must be either
- A picture of yourself*
- A cute avatar**
- Your band or your company logo
* Bands/Partners may use their logo or a personal avatar
** We mean cute as in cute and cuddly. Examples of cute are dancing lady bug, hula hooping koala, or a picture of a cuddly pet. No drug references please. There are cute avatars freely available all over the web. Here are a few sites you can browse to find one that fits your personality.
