At the top of the page, click on the underlined "private messages."
Then go to the avatars.
I think it's pretty much self explanitory from there.

avatars are being worked on. Right now, it will not allow externally hosted avatars. Eventually that will get fixed, its not a high priority right now.

Signature photos are externally hosted and displayed using the [IMG] commands in your sig.

Go to the page where you configure your signature in the user control panel. Then click on the button that looks like it has a mountain range on it...the [img] bracket will appear...type the address of the picture...then click the button that says close current tag which will produce the [/img] bracket.

We generally like to keep sig pics down to 450x100 pixels.
This is not a hard limit...yet...

And if you're wondering, mine is 400x100
