Here's how to add a picture:

1a. Find an image you want on your page on any other page in the wiki, or on the image list page.
1b. If you want to upload a new photo, go to the upload file page.

2. Once you've found or uploaded a photo, find out its name (including the extension), which will be something like this:
Image:(your_image_name)

3. Now, find a nice place on your user page, edit the code, and add this text, replacing the words in parentheses appropriately:

[[Image:(your_image_name)|thumb|(The image caption)]]

4. Save the edit, and you've got yourself an image!
