How can I add a picture?

Postby holliegirl » Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:40 am

I want to add a picture to my signature. All my photos of Hollie seem to be too big. Any tips? :?

In the top left corner under the Greyhound silouette, there is "user Control Panel" . click on that and it opens your profile. Click the tab at the top that says profile and then the edit signature button on the left.
i think the best way to add photos here or even in the body of this message would be to upload the images to a website like www.photobucket.com
After you upload the photo, there will be 4 links below it the photo. Copy and paste the "img" link (I think it is the 3rd or 4th link) in the signature box or here. The photo will show up.
sounds complicated but it isn't too hard once you go through the steps.

If you have problems with this, I can edit your signature for you. Just send me the picture in question and I will add it for you.

Thanks Scott - I will forward you the picture. But what I'd really like to do is make one of those really cool banner like ones with the pictures and names. Do you know how/where to do THAT? :w00t:

Photoshop is how you get the banner. I actually had a friend do mine. But if you have photoshop or know someone with it, they can make you a banner.

I have photoshop. If you send me the pictures and an idea of what you want I will create one for you.

I have a question on this topic, too. Possum's gotcha day is coming up at the end of this month and I'd like to post a photo or two of him then. I have some saved to photobucket but need to know what size to make them in order to have them fit in this site. Would someone please let me know? Thx!

If you have the photos in photobucket already..they are the right size. You just need to copy and paste the link that starts with "img" ..when you hold your mouse over the photo in the album..a drop down will show up with 4 links. it is usually the bottom one that starts with img. copy that..paste it in the body of the message and your image will show up when you submit it.

okay, i posted it and it worked great, but when i clicked on his photo it worked as a link to my photobucket account so i deleted the post. how do i change that so the photo can be viewed larger instead of being a link to my photobucket albums when someone clicks on it? i never did get a dropdown menu when i held my mouse over the photo, only a long URL that had the IMG within it. :blink:
