Yes, I had difficulty as well, but figured it out.  If you have a picture you want on the desktop computer, open a new tab and drag the picture from the desktop to the tab.  Then copy the web address (URL) it has for it and paste it onto the section.  And alas, you have a picture! ;)

Hmmm.. I did exactly what you said and it doesn't seem to work.  It's still showing an "x" where there should be something.  I don't understand.

Hmm...ok, what you might try is getting that as an avatar on another website (in my case, I had to use the picture that was my avatar on Chess.com) and then drag the picture as it is on the website into the other tab.  If not, try getting another copy of that picture somewhere on the internet and see if it works.  Sorry if I'm not more of a help...I'm not very techy myself. :-[
