No tabs, no right clicking, no copying and pasting a bajillion things; you only need the generic template, and the dragon's ID number. This will work for ANY adult dragon, even those that aren't yours, even exalted ones. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for hatchlings.
If you want to skip all the explanation and just learn how to do it, go to the end of this post.
First, here's the BBCode for the dragon in my current avatar, Estus. I get it from going to her page and clicking Generate Code. Note that her ID number is 24060289.
That will get us a fullbody picture, like this:
And this is the code for her avatar. I get it from setting her as my avatar, then right-clicking the picture, then looking at the image address. I've put it in image tags for demonstration's sake.
That gives me this:
Ignoring the part that says url=blahblahblah, let's put the two addresses of the two images next to each other to see the similarities and differences:
Section by section:
Alright, so you might have figured out that you can go to a dragon's page, generate code, switch out '350' for 'portraits', and '_350' for 'p', and you'll get their headshot. But what is this mystery number? That, my friend, is the secret to getting any dragon's picture, even if they're exalted.
Dragons seem to be referenced on the server in batches of 100 (except for ID's 1-99, that's a batch of 99). So for ID's 1-99, this mystery number will be 1. For ID's 100-199, this mystery number will be 2. In short, for this number, you round up to the next multiple of 100, then take off the last two zeroes. If the ID in question is a multiple of 100, you still go up to the next one. For Estus, whose ID is 24060289, we round up to get 24060300, then lop off the zeroes to get 240603.
And that's it! No opening tons of tabs to code other dragons' portraits into one dragon's lore. And it works with exalted dragons too! You just have to put in their ID into the place it would normally go.
So here's one of my dragons, a dragon with a randomly typed ID, an exalted dragon, and a deity.
TL;DR
Go to any dragon's page, generate code, then copy the BBCode. Then modify as follows (I've put it in angle brackets for clarity) to get any other dragon's avatar:

- Everything is the same up until the part that says 'rendern'. This part you never touch.
- The next part says '350' for fullbody, and 'portraits' for headshot.
- This part looks a bit like the dragon's ID... but not quite. Let's skip this part for now and call it the mystery number.
- This part is the dragon's ID number.
- This part says '_350' for fullbody and 'p' for headshot.
- This is the file extension, .png.
