I would say that as soon as you register and activate your account, I would pick out my avatar and put together a little signature for myself. This gives you your own online personality and allows for folks to get to know you a bit.
"But, what is an avatar and how do I select one?" 
Well, I'll tell ya'!
An avatar is the small picture that you select to display next to your username on the Share Forum. It is similar to the one you see to the left...My picture 
So, how do you select one? Simple! Just look towards the top of the page and look for the "User Control Panel". Click it and you'll be taken to your user control panel. Here you can do lots of stuff!
Now look on the left hand side of your User CP and you'll notice six different sections. The second section is titled "Profile" and that's where we'll find our "Edit Avatar" link. Click that and you'll be taken to the screen where you will select which avatar you'll want to use for your online identity.
After you have selected/uploaded your Avatar you can "Edit Signature".
You can also insert your instant message ID if you would like.
Under "Board preferences" you can change how members of the Share Forum contact you. Not allowing members contact you by email hides your email and offers more security. You can still allow members to send you private messages (PM).
Then visit the Introductions topic and tell us more of who you are!
Next: just HAVE FUN SHARING!!
