How to put pics and banners in your sig

In Off-topic

I know this might sound stupid but how do you put those images on your signatures, those are cool.

Thanks

Alright, this has been asked before, but it's no big deal. I was once new to this as well.

It's the same as making images that you would post in a regular post. Just have a url of your image such as:



... then surround that with BBCode image tags. The final result will look like:




Just stick that in your signature box on your profile page, and you're ready to go! Hope this helps!

Let's make that sticky for a while.

I thought that was self-explaining, but it seems it's not.

Yea, what Roth said

Add the link of the picture you want, (Go to the picture, right click, go toproperties, coppy where it says adsress: and copy the link of the address, go to your signature, paste the link in it, then right infront of the link, put right behind the .jpg or .gif portion of the link.

You should place in the begining of the forums a FAQ forum containint Sticky threads guies

The problem is only few people seem to read such sticky topics.

We should really try to make a FAQ about the forum. About games' rarity, where to find NES ROMs and etiquette and such.
I'll see what I can do when I have the time.


No, the problem is only few people seem to "read".


I don't know if you realize this but the link to that image isn't working.

...

Oh, and please people, no more than two pics in any sig (and none more than 200 KB in size).

That would be a point we should have in our rules...
Luckily my sig is far away from 200kb.


Luckily my sig is far away from 200kb.

mine is somewhat close, and I'm sure that was the reasoning behind Z.E.N's mentioning it. Though I can understand, I was reluctant to put it in there myself. But everyone needs to see "Teh Reggielution"

If so for img what is it for videos.?

you can't embed a video in a post, any animations shown are GIF files, maybe flash, but I don't know about that.

yeah in my sig FLash

i just got to compliment Z.E.N on his SWEET Rude Dog avatar



Your sig link should work in the normal way:




Wow! People from the U.K. know of "Rude Dog"? I'm impressed.
Then again, I was impressed to know that people from the U.K. know of "Red Dwarf" too. Yes I know it's a British comedy and all, but I thought that only Americans actually "watched" it.


That's a image, not "Flash".


I just tested a tags. I've seen them work on a vBulletin board though.

How do you link images on your signature to other sites or pages? Luke has reggielution linked to that site..

Like this:


And how do I put a pic from my PC to a topic or reply?

I replied to that, but i guess it got deleted.
1. Go Here:
2.Click 'Browse' and select the picture you want uploaded.
3. Copy the URL of 'Hotlink for forums 1'
4. Paste it in a topic of reply.
