What do you mean by <i>my extra info</i>? Where is that?

I think he means his signature, if that happens to be the case then it's: http://www.website.com/picture.ext

If you're talking about your profile information, well, you can't.

How to put up a sig:

1. Find a picture that is suitable for the forums and does not exceed the sig limits of 250 pixels in height and I think it's about 500 pixels in width, and it must not exceed 50 kbs in size. To check the size, right click on the picture and then click on Properties. It should tell you the dimensions as well as the kbs.

2. You have to host it somewhere on the web, such as Homestead, or get someone to host it for you. You can find someone in the <a href="http://www.eyesonff.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33724">sig</a> thread for that. You can not link to it from your own hard drive or from attachments on the forum.

3. When you get it hosted on the web and you have the address for the picture, go to your profile and insert the picture address in the signature field like this :

<b>&lt;img src="picture address goes here"&gt;</b>

or

<b>[<i></i>IMG]picture address goes here[<i></i>/IMG]</b>

4. Good luck. :) Hope that helped.

No and no. Lycos.co.uk does, or did, at least. I haven't needed to use it in a long time.

If you want to make an actual signature, you can get art from, oh, rpgamer.com or, i dunno, eyesonff.com? If you just want sprites or something because you can't make a sig... rpgicons.com may have what you want. Or just ask in the sig thread. I've been told such a place exists, somewhere, over the rainbow.

If you want this to work, you're going to have to do a little research and work yourself, I'm afraid.

:D

Ty guys for helping me through this I couldn't have done it without you

ffbof, those pics won't be visible unless you get them hosted somewhere on the web. PM me the files and I'll host them for you.

When you link images to your own machine, it will only work for you and nobody else.

Unless you're running a web server ;)

But even then, the format of the address he's used isn't right for a web server on your own machine/private network machine :p

You know geocities works if you hcange the file extension to .txt. So rename "picture.jpg" (or whatevre it is) to "picture.txt"

That's right, ffbof. All we see are little red X's in white boxes.

Perhaps the Triforce alone would suffice? It's a nice signature... :)
