Signature Help

jakesdad · 03-27-2007, 05:41 PM

Hi all,

OK, I'm not getting this signature thing.... So, I already have 30 posts and have read the rules. What I can't figure out is how you actually get the picture in your signature. I tried cutting and pasting and the insert, but it wants a URL.... HELP!!! how do you do this?!?

jakesdad · 03-27-2007, 05:53 PM

I have the access, I don't know how.

DogLover8 · 03-27-2007, 05:54 PM

Happened to me when I joined. Takes the web site a little while to update the "User CP".

You need to host the picture on a website like www.photobucket.com or imageshack.com

You can also upload your photo to your gallery, right click on the photo and a menu will appear. Go to Properties, and a box will pop up. Towards the bottom should be a section for the "Image URL". Copy and paste that, and paste it into the image box.

OR if you decide to host it on photobucket...
Once you upload the photo, it will provide you with three links. The last link is for forums. It already has the IMG tags on it, so you don't need to push the button to add IMG tags in your post/signature editor. Just copy the URL and paste it into the signature editor.

Creating an account at photobucket is completely free.

If you need anymore help, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks, let's see if it worked.

jakesdad · 03-27-2007, 06:06 PM

OK, I have a little work to do.. Ha!!! LOL

IceyBlueSibes · 03-27-2007, 06:07 PM

Cool! Atleast you understood it though

If you ever need help with making a signature, you can ask a couple of members on here to make one for you. Cassiepeia does an excellent job at siggies!

DogLover8 · 03-27-2007, 06:14 PM

I certainly misread your post.

Paste the code into the Edit Signature box below the Preview in the Edit Signature section. Do you know how to use HTML?

IceyBlueSibes · 03-27-2007, 06:20 PM

He's got it now doglover. He just has to fumble around with it to get it to what he likes.

jakesdad · 03-27-2007, 06:27 PM

YAY! Not bad for a hack!!! I'll have to work on all that fancy stuff.

Thanks so much for your help...

IceyBlueSibes · 03-27-2007, 07:03 PM

Looks good!

DogLover8 · 03-27-2007, 07:55 PM

Your signature looks nice!

I do not have an 'edit signature' option in my CP. Do you know how I get one? Thanks.

***Cassiepeia*** · 03-31-2007, 04:29 AM

You need 30 posts to get a signature.

After your 30th post the 'edit signature' link should show up.
Make sure you read the signature rules thread in the 'announcements' forum before you add a signature though.

Cass.
