Okay, I sent the message to them. However, when I tried the website for an avatar and I was able to find the URL of the image I chose, but when I attempted to modify my post to include it, it did not display. 

I guess I will go with the officer training course to fit Ian's backstory.

Biography: Ian comes from a family of civilian engineers, and though he did study the family business, Ian wanted more than a life in planet-bound research. His father did not approve of this decision and the two argued about Ian choosing Starfleet over his family who all worked at the family business of Delcron Electronics. Coming to the sad realization that he would never get his father's approval, Ian applied to Starfleet the day he turned 18. Based on his superlative education and engineering background, Ian passed the test with flying colors. On the day he arrived at Starfleet Academy, Ian made a solemn vow that one day he would sit center seat as the commander of a Starship, only then did Ian believe his father would approve of his decision.

Sample Post:
Ian looked across the grounds of Starfleet Academy and had an intense bout of homesickness and doubt. "Och, what have I gone and bloody done?" But as soon as hit, the uncertainty passed. "You have made your bed and tis time for you to lie in it Ian. What's done is done. Time to show Gaffer that I'm my own man and capable of making my own bloody decisions."

Ian found his quarters and quickly stored his gear. Just as he was closing his locker, his room mate arrived in a whirlwind of activity that caused Ian to blink in surprise and think. "I hope he's not a wanker. Last thing I need is domestic issues."

Pushing his unease aside, Ian smiled and held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you lad. I'm Ian, Ian Galloway."
