Correct, as in, your custom avatar will be displayed along with your content (e.g. network-posted messages).

No, -share is for exporting custom avatar *collections* typically created by the sysop (not users). I think the documentation covers this pretty well:

 > Or is a custom Avatar usable by the user who has created it only always?

A custom personal user avatar is not available in the avatar chooser for other users to easily/automatically reuse (whether the avatar was exported to a network or not).
