2.The connection between the spirit world and the real world of the fictional universe of Avatar.
3. An icon used by a user that shows up on the left side of the screen.
How to get one of these? It's very, very simple [hence the "for dummies"]
First, get to your profile. To do so, click either your username, or this nifty little button at the top of any page.
From there, you should see a link that says "Modify Profile". click it.
Scroll down a bit till you see a text box that says "Avatar". From here, you have a variety of choices. First, you can choose a pre-made Avatar that this site provides. If none of those appeal to you, then look for an image online that does. Paste the URL of it into the text box labelled "Avatar URL:". To get the URL, highlight the text at the top of your screen (in your address bar) and copy+paste it into the text box.
Last but not least, specify your dimensions in the next two boxes. 100x100 is the biggest you can get, and if you leave it blank, it usually ends up tiny.
From there, scroll down and hit "modify Profile" to finish this. voila! you have an Avatar.
I can't explain it any simpler than this.

Ask an admin.
If you don't, EPIC FAIL!
