Loading Images Into Signature

[PatWest]

I've read the frequently asked questions section on this and it doesn't make any sense to me. I'm just too stupid. I want to load an Image into my signature section and need a simple tutorial on how to do it.
:hmmm:

First, upload the image to a site such as imageshack (www.imageshack.us); then when you edit your signature, put the coding it displays after the title "For forums (1):". You then have a signature image.

Make sure your image complies with the limits, though - 468 pixels wide, 100 high. 100kb size and eihter in png, gif or jgp format.

You are not stupid - we all have to learn and ask questions. This is not innate stuff...

Ahhh, thats the part that didn't get mentioned. Thanks Grim.

I don't really think I'm stupid, it's just a little false modesty.

Well, I'm almost there. How do I get an image without the size captions.

It's an upload option. Check the "remove size/resolution bar from thumbnail?" box. Or you could resize it yourself, but that's tricky if you don't want it to look like garbage.

Thanks Simetrical, I didn't notice that option the first time. Now I've just got to find a good Avatar.

If you want a custom one you can always go to the Sig/Avatar thread in the thema devia forum - theres always plenty of people willing to make them
