How to add pictures or quotes with your signature?

[MissStacey 1]

I've been poking around and can't figure it out!!

go to 'my controls'

then 'edit signature'

put a picture in the signature block the same way you post on in a thread.

(host it on imageshack and click the picture icon (in VJ above the sig block) and put the direct link in the space provided))

Thats the problem, I don't know how to add them on a thread either.

I have no problem with the Avatar picture- it has an option to use pics you have stored in your computer.

There is an "add image" box when I choose "edit signature" when I click it it asks for URL code. I don't know what that is..

you don't need an account for this...

go here...

click browse and find a pic on your computer

click 'host it'

copy the link in 'Direct link to image' into the 'insert image' box

you can also put most pics on the web in a sig or thread. right click the pick and hit 'properties' . copy and paste the pic URL in the same place. make sure the URL ends in a picture file... jpg, gif etc....

Nope, thats not it!

I get that box, then I get this after I press "update my signature"

The error returned was:

Sorry, dynamic pages in the tags are not allowed

Karin and Otto managed to post the picture I was trying to post. I am trying to figure out how she did it.

I am getting frustated and a bit of a headache now!

I have to go get ready for work. I will try again later.

Thanks again for trying to help the Blonde!

ok, I figured it out.. you grabbed the wrong code.... when you use the insert image thing you need to grab the URL Link not the IMG code...

if you want to add the image to your sig just grab the IMG code and directly paste it into the edit signature box and hit update signature....

ok so image shack works a little different then Photobucket (the one I use)

to use the "insert image" feature on VJ using Image Shack, copy and paste the link shown here "Direct link to image"

and to add the image directly to you sig.. copy and paste the link shown here.... "Hotlink for forums (1)" into the edit sig box on VJ.....
