'Profile' from the menu above, then select from the menu on the left 'forum profile information'.

When you are on the page 'forum profile information' you should first see a sectiont titled 'personalized picture'. There are 3 options for that: one of the pics provided by the forum, getting one from the web, or uploading from your computer (which is the one I assume you want to do). Once you select your option and/or upload your pic, then you hit the change profile button you see at the bottom.

Well the only thing really confusing me about this is that next to the option for upload my own pic, it just shows my current pic.  No way to browse for the file to upload a new one or anything.  i can select that option, but there are no prompts for how to upload from there.  me mucho confuso.

Profile
Forum Profile Information
Tick whichever option you're going to use - Personalized Picture, I have my own pic, I will upload my own picture.

If you choose I have my own you have to get the link from whatever photo hosting website you use (ie photobucket)
If you choose I will upload my own - click the browse button, another window pops up, find your picture on your computer, select it and press "open"

Scroll down to bottom of the page and press "Change Profile" that's the only way you'll be able to upload it and see the new one.

I finally was able to change it (seeeee, look how cute we are!!!  8) ) for some reason it wouldn't give me the browse button to choose a different pic, then suddenly it did.  Anyway, thanks for all the help!
