Signature images.

The Fitz

I dont know how many times this has been posted but can someone please explain to me how to get an image as a sig? if it could be done in step by step form id be obliged.
Thanks
Fitz.

you need to have your image stored somewhere on the internet.... for example mine is stored at http://members.boards.ie/ruggiebear/ruggieC1.jpg.

you can then put it in image tags like these and put it in your sig...



Is that any help?

The Fitz

not really, how'd i store it on the internet? like in an email or summat?

Click here, all boards members have 5 megabooties of space so upload your sig picture here and use image tags
Is this any help?

more to the point, why not ban having images as sigs altogether? - there's nothing more irritating when you're trying to read many short replies than havin to trawl through all the boring sigs! They are banned on a lot of sites you know!

What happens when you try to?

You can post the pic as an attachment and I'll put it on my space if you want.

Id rather it on my space, It tells me that my usernaname/password is wrong although I entered it correctly a thousand times.
Then when it works it tells me there's a bug on the server . .

You have the register again on the webspace, your boards.ie username and pw wont be on the database.

come to think of it, that'd b great.

Gordon

ok post it as an attachment.

In getting your webspace to work though, there are a couple of points:
as mentioned - you need to register for webspace
and - it is case sensitive but afaik it has to be small caps - your username is most likely
