You need to go to your User Control Panel (upper right, arrow next to your name) and Edit Avatar. You then can upload the picture of your silks.

Directions here are thanks to Madelene Gilbert:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=46298&p=397030&hilit=avatar#p397030

If you want to use your silks, here's an easy way:
1) From your My Stable homepage in the SIM, right click over the image of your silks
2) Select "Copy image address" from the menu options
3) In the Forum, click User Control Panel under your account name, then click the Profile tab, then click Edit Avatar in the left nav menu
4) Select Remote Avatar from the dropdown menu
5) Paste the URL in the Link off-site field (should look something like this: https://www.simhorseracing.com/silks/2460.jpg)
6) Specify 80px by 80px in the Avatar dimensions fields

That's it! You don't have to edit or upload any image files.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hey Frank,
Just like Lori said. However I did have to resize mine, but then I did upload mine manually not the way Madeline Gilbert describes, which looks to be easier.
