How do I put an image in my sig?

[Bruce1971]

Hi,

 

Trying to put a couple of images in my signature. I seem to be almost there but they are showing up as links and not pics.

 

I did this, [/img] url [/img]

 

Should also ask if flickr is not a good hosting site to use. Guessing part of, or all, of my problem is I have went to the page with the photo and not directly to the photo.

 

Thanks,

Bruce

Click on the image with a check mark, go to generate HTML code at the bottom right, copy the clickable IMG code from the next page. That should do it....

 

 

Anyone else? Is that right?

That is correct, provided his image isn't too large for the sig. Also, I believe it's the fourth choice on the second page.

I thought he had that part, he was just copying the wrong code.

I am in my profile, but dont see what Roy is talking about.

[comicdonna]

Do you have a photobucket account?

I am in my profile, but dont see what Roy is talking about.

 

Sorry, I assumed you knew I was talking about Photobucket. You go to your Photobucket account to do what I described, then paste that code from Photobucket into your profile where it allows you to add sig material.

Roy were you giving me flickr help? Getting a bit confused.

[Bruce1971]

nope, but going to make one right now

Create photobucket account free.

 

Upload images.

 

You'll need two pieces of URL: the full sized image URL and the thumbnail URL.

 

Type this code into your Signature text box in your profile settings: insert full sized image URL here[/b]]

I've never used Flickr or Imageshack but I'd assume they all have a similar procedure to Photobucket.

Thanks everyone, i got it. My pics seem a wee bit big. Should I resize them?

[VintageComics]

Bruce, did you use the "Thumbnail" code?

 

[Bruce1971]
