1. Take a screenshot.
2a. Open the screenshot in an imaging program. Infranview and the Gimp are free ones.
2b. If you want, crop it down. 100x100 pixels is the maximum size for an avatar (the image just below your name on the left of the screen.
3. Save it as a JPEG. Try to get a good balance of picture quality and image size.
4a. If you want it as an avatar, go to your user control panel, click edit avatar, then click Browse to upload it.
4b. If you want to post it in a thread, just click Manage Attachments while posting. Then Browse for it and click Upload.
