First things first you need to have your sig image hosted somewhere - we have a size limitation as laid out in the Code of Conduct of 450x200 pixels. Ultimately this is the most important part - you must have your image hosted on the internet. I notice your Avatar is a file on your local hard drive, this won't actually be visible to anyone but yourself.

Once you have this image available online click on "Profile" at the top of the page and just off the bottom of the first page is an input box labelled "Signature: This is a block of text that can be added to posts you make. There is a 255 character limit".

Into this box, enter the following code:

Code:

Obviously you subsitute the "URL OF YOUR IMAGE HERE" for the URL of your image and it will appear in your signature once you click the "Submit" button at the bottom of the Profile page.

As an example, my sig would use this text:

Code:

Any questions, just ask

I went to the link you posted and do not see a picture there so you may want to look into that. Lightning explains how to post in into your signature box in your profile.

The picture up in the corner is your avatar and can be added through your profile as well. If you want to use your own picture, you simply need to type in the url of the location of that picture (beware the size restriction).

Both of the url addresses must begin with http:// followed by the actual web location of the picture. Depending upon your internet provider, you may have access to webspace through them where you can upload a picture from your computer. Then you'll have a url for it.

This is the most important part: your image must be hosted online so that, when you link it in as explained above, it can be viewed by everyone

Vanguard6787,

If you don't have anywhere to host your picture, you can email it to me ( thedrunkendwarf@vanguardfighters.com ) and I'll host it for you and give you the URL to link it.

Further to this, I have started a thread about making sigs and avatars here. It includes a list of free hosts that allow hot linking.
