How are you guys adding the pictures into the bottom of your replies?
I see that alot of the replies have what I call "signature pictures", Meaning they seem to be automatically included in the bottom of the thread. I have tried and just can't figure it out. Thank you.
[quote=ALLEGRO;1573082125]Go to "User CP" in the red tool bar.
Select "Signature" and get to work.
You must host you pics somewhere, I use Photobucket.
Then you add the link to your pic with the following formula:
[img]your pic link[/img]
Like I said, GET TO WORK
I have tried that with no luck.
At the bottom of the signature page, I have the following; I have highlited in red, 2nd from the bottom saids that I cannot upload images for signature. I believe this is what I have to change.
Signature Permissions
Allow Basic BB Code Yes
Allow Color BB Code Yes
Allow Size BB Code Yes
Allow Font BB Code Yes
Allow Alignment BB Code Yes
Allow List BB Code Yes
Allow Link BB Code Yes
Allow HTML No Allow Image BB Code Yes
Allow Code BB Code Yes
Allow PHP BB Code No
Allow HTML BB Code No
Allow Quote BB Code No
Allow Smilies Yes
Can Upload Images for Signature No
Can Upload Animated GIF for Signature No
Can Upload Images for Signature No
Can Upload Animated GIF for Signature No
As ALLEGRO said you need to host the pictures somewhere and link to them. To use the upload features (and use the forum's servers for image storage) you have to be a Premium Member.
Before the picture link will show, you have to bracket the link with [IMG] at the beginning and [/IMG] at the end.
There is a selection box that needs to be checked if you want to show your signature at the end of your post. You need to go into the Edit Options and click the box on Visible Post Elements, Show Signature.
You will need to find a hosting site for the pics like mentioned above: Photobucket.com or tinypic.com are good sites to use. You need to just copy the IMG link into your signature creation and the photo should load.
However, you might want to know that showing the signature used to be a very common practice here, but it seemed like people were showing their signature on every single post that they made which got to be rather . Now it is generally accepted that the need to show a signature in a post is really rather rare.
Hope you get your signature created OK. Its been a long time since I created my signature and I hope that the info above is correct.
If you still can't get it to work, try posting a request for help in the Help and Feedback section and someone will guide you through the process.
Also, what you might be seeing at the bottom of the posts is not really a signature pic but just a pic of a car that is uploaded so all can see it.

Here's the code that creates the signature I use. The * on each side of *IMG* and *URL* would be deleted in the actual signature code. The URL tags make the CORVETTEPICS.NET image a clickable link.

Can you not get your CP to accept the link or image, or can you get it to accept the link and image, it just won't show on your post?
On the reply page, below the 'submit/preview' buttons, there's a section called 'miscellaneous options', make sure the 'show your signature' box is checked. Your user CP will accept the link/image and not show it on your post if this box is not checked.
Signatures (and signature pictures) are not automatically included in posts that you make to a thread. You must select the option to show the signature when you submit the post.
Moderators and forum rules have stated that you should not append your signature to your post more than once per thread.
Thank you to everyone that wrote back trying to help me out. I guess that I am not as computer literate as I thought. It's just more trouble than it's worth. I am tired of . never been so , that I want to.
At least I have figured out how to use all the little smilies.
