The number of posts you have made is the amount of points you can spend. Go to "Options," then "edit Avatar." If you're confused, as I was for a while, just click "Purchase Item."

I've been ignoring them since we got 'em, maybe a year ago. Now I'm playing around with them. They work, even when they don't work. (I'm at that awkward stage when I can't have an Avatar, but it still shows on my Profile.)
