Slightly odd profile change request

Greetings all,

I went through about 20 pages of search results looking for an answer to this - no luck.  And I realize that the answer is probably REALLY obvious! LOL

I've found all the information I need about adding custom fields, etc. to my profiles - Thank you to all who wrote instructions! - but I'm looking to change part of the basic display.  I've searched through half a dozen files I "thought" would relate to profiles, looking for the sentence I want to alter - but I can't find its root location.

When in Profile > Modify Profile > Forum Profile Information, you come to the screen where you can change your Avatar. 

Near the top is a sentence, "You can change your personal information on this page. This information will be displayed throughout :your board name:. If you aren't comfortable with sharing some information, simply skip it - nothing here is required. "

I would like to change just that sentence, and if possible, include a hyperlink.  I have a huge avatar gallery, and selecting through the preview sometimes takes forever.  I'd like to direct users to a page I created where they can view every single avatar easily, get the file name, and then select it in the avatar preview.

Again, I realize the location for changing this sentence is probably very obvious - but I'm stumped!  Any assistance would be appreciated!

Incidentally - if anyone is interested in viewing my avatar gallery - hxxp:www.humanitysteamus.org/avatars.htm [nonactive]
I have it as a .zip file, broken down by catagory as displayed, if anyone would like a copy.  I'm happy to share!

Admins, if I'm breaking a rule by posting this here, I apologize!  Please feel free to edit the post as needed.

Thanks again!

In Themes/default/languages/Profile.english.php (or whatever language or languages you want to edit, .php...) find:

$txt['forumProfile_info'] = '...';

Change it there.  Use all the HTML you want, but remember to escape *single quotes* like ' with a slash - \'.

And doesn't it just figure that would be a file I'd not have thought to edit?!

Thank you so much!
