have you gone in under "paw prints"? there you can post Fergies bio and also on the left side there you have different options, where you can go in and change your profile, so you can add an avatar.
To add pictures to your post, you click on additional options under the box you type in when you post, you will get up a box and after that "browse" and if you want to add more than one pic you click on "more attachments" after the "browse" box and more room for pics will come up, you can keep doing that until you have added the pics you want to add to that post, there is a limit 400 kb per post, but thats a loooot lol
