How to add Pictures to my Signature

I recently wanted to change my Forum Signature.  It would include a picture that I had from My Pictures folder, but I don't know how to put pictures on the Signature.  OMG, I NEED HELP!  PLZ REPLY!  yikes

Re: How to add Pictures to my Signature

First thing, you need to find an image hosting website. There are many out there, but I recommend FreeImageHosting. When you go there, you can upload an image directly from the homepage.

When you do that you'll see many text boxes with code. There's one that says "To insert this image in a forum post, copy and paste the following code". DON'T use that one. Instead, copy the URL in the one that says "To view this image directly, use the following URL". Now type "[img](paste URL here)[/img]", and it'll show up in your sig.  smile

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: How to add Pictures to my Signature

First, upload your image to an image hosting website such as Photobucket.com. Then, once you've got the picture uploaded, right click on it and select "Copy image URL". This will copy the link to your image. Now, to put it into your siggy, type this code in the siggy box:

Code:

[img](paste the link to your image here)[/img]

Done. xD

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

This is a great guide by coka: The Guide
