Placing images and links in your signature?

Feyd - 19-11-2013 at 05:15 AM

My forum skills suck. I'd like to add an image or two to by sig and clean it up a bit, don't have a clue how. Probably right in front of my face but I don't see it.

If anyone has the kung fu skills to help me out I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

BAH! Okay Carl, I can see how to put text in but how'd you get the Peter Logo/link in there? I don't see any option for that kind of trickery. :D

Use the [img] tags and link to an image.

Damn, you dumb.









:D

Feyd - 19-11-2013 at 05:31 AM

Yes, yes I am.

Show me an example if you please.

BOOM!

Oh good lord man.

I don't need a visual, funny as it is.

I have no idea how to employ [img] tags.

Kamikuza - 19-11-2013 at 05:42 AM

Dude, don't tell me you just click the picture button and don't know what it does :o

[img] then add the url and close with [/img]

I would love to now how you decided to use this image of Willy Shatner and his perm. The thought process....

I'm all for instant gratification Push a button, get a treat? Sign me up.

Based on what you're inllustrating here, this requires some flavor of 3rd party image hosting right?

Yes, but if you are commitment-phobic, just use TinyPic.com. You can sign up if you want, but it's not required. You can just upload a file, and it will give you a URL to reference your uploaded image.

I sometimes use it for quick & dirty/hit & run forum image links.

OMG button-clicker, why u not know that scene?!
"Well... double-dumb ass on you!"
It's all part of the theme ;)

I'm just grabbing random images using http url - but if you want to use your own image you'll have to upload it somewhere...

Who attaches files, anyway?!?

imgur.com is a great image host with no login required
