Adding a link in your signature


Well, I’m going to make this easy for you. It gave me a headache, and there’s no point in giving you one too!

To add a clickable link WITHOUT a picture:

1. Copy this to a word processing document, or notepad:

[url=http://YOURADDRESSHERE]TITLEOFYOURSITE[/url]

2. Highlight the text that says “YOURADDRESSHERE”, and replace it with the electronic address of your website.

3. Highlight the text that says “TITLEOFYOURSITE”, and replace it with the title of your site. Copy this. Make sure you get the whole thing!

4. Open the forum in your browser. At the top of the forum page, there is a link labeled "Control panel." Click on that.

5. In the window that opens, click the button labeled "Change miscellaneous settings."

6. In the window that opens, there will be a text box labeled "Signature (optional)".

7. In this box, paste the text you’ve previously copied. At the bottom of the page, click the button that says "Save settings". And you’re done!



To add a clickable link WITH a picture:

1. Size the art you are going to use (your logo, or whatever). Keep these small!!! One of the dimensions should be no more than 60 pixels. Upload the art to an image hosting website (for information on sizing art and image hosting, see the sticky titled "How to post pictures" in this section).

2. Copy the following to a word processing document, or notepad:

[url=http://YOURADDRESSHERE][img]http://ADDRESSOFIMAGE[/img][/url]


3. Highlight the text that says “YOURADDRESSHERE”, and replace it with the electronic address of your website.

4. Highlight the text that says “ADDRESSOFIMAGE”, and replace it with the electronic address (url) of your art from the image hosting website. Copy this. Make sure you get the whole thing!

5. Open the forum in your browser. At the top of the forum page, there is a link labeled "Control panel". Click on that.

6. In the window that opens, click the button labeled Change miscellaneous settings".

7. In the window that opens, there will be a text box labeled "Signature (optional)."

8. In this box, paste the text you’ve previously copied. At the bottom of the page, click the button that says "Save settings." And you’re done!
