I might be posting this in the wrong place, so I'm sorry if i am. (feel free to remove it.) I have noticed some members include pictures in their posts as a signature. Could anyone please inform me how to do this please???

Cheers.

As shown here (http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?t=6526) once you've posted 25 times, you can have a signature.

Go to your User CP (http://forum.pesinsight.com/usercp.php?) and then go to the option to change your signature. Post the complete link of a picture there within and to make it show.

(Yes you posted in the wrong section but I'll move it for you ;) )

Thanks for that Zyg. (sorry about posting in the wrong place though)
I know I'm probably being thick but what are the ing or /ing? do I put the web address link or the link of the location where the picture is on my computer?

cheers.

IMG = Image

You need to put the link of the picture you want in between and .

Link goes here

e.g. @http://www.furd.org/images/news/blades_banner.jpg@ (without the '@' symbol)

would produce...

http://www.furd.org/images/news/blades_banner.jpg

If you put the location of the picture on your computer in between, it won't work as it needs to be an internet link.

Hmm...the only thing I can think is that maybe you've unticked the 'Show Signatures' box in the Thread Display Options part of the User Control Panel.

I mean, I can see your signature pic in your posts.

Can you see other people's?

The forum rules are here (http://forum.pesinsight.com/announcement.php?f=80&announcementid=10)

3. Signature images must be kept smaller than 450 pixels in width and 150 pixels in height. Images used in sigs larger than size results in the forums becoming mis-shaped.

Yours is 500 x 259 pixels. You can use this one:
http://img18.exs.cx/img18/7232/blades_banner2.jpg

http://img18.exs.cx/img18/7232/blades_banner2.jpg
or resize it yourself if you like.

OK but what if the picture that I got doesn't have a web link. Like I went to a site but it had a bunch of pictures and I just clicked on one and it opened up a small window with no webbrowser? Thanks.

Save it on your PC, and upload it to imageshack.com or frutsel or one of the many uploading sites. These sites will give you a link for your signature.

Level 1 = 25 Posts
Level 2 = 50 Posts
Level 3 = 100 Posts
Level 4 = 250 Posts
Level 5 = 1000 Posts


From what that says it should be 50, but that Zyg guy said that it was 25, so I'm not sure. I am having trouble with it anyways. Urg.

You can also right-click on the picture you want, go to properties then copy and paste the image address from there

You just have to search around for the gif you like and copy the url for it.
There is a thread in the Testing section which includes a good link to a lot of gifs of superheroes. Check it out.

Don't worry, we can see your sig.
Maybe you should try it on another browser.
