I have noticed quite a few people have signature setup at the bottom of there post. I really like the one with the picture of the sugarhouse in the back ground.

Problem is I can't seem to figure it out, for myself.
Any info would be helpful.

Thanks in advance
Pete

Pete,
Click on profile at the top of the page. Once in profile scroll down and there is a box to design your signature. Type in anything you like. You can copy and paste urls and images also. Once that is done scroll down and set always attach signature to yes. My son designed the picture and made it so you click on it to take you to the url of my pictures. He did it on photoshop and emailed it to my computer so I cant help much with that part of it. I will ask him about it next time he is home.

Normally the pic has to "reside" (be hosted) on the net somewhere, then just wrap the url with [img] tags (see my post on posting pics).

If you can't figure it out, just email me your pic and I will compose the code for you and email it back. If you want it to be clickable and point somewhere like tapper's does, just let me know the url.

Thanks for the help, I should be able to figure out how to do it.
There won't be any picture yet. We need to get a new camera. Should be getting one in a few weeks.

Thanks
Pete

Tapper, your pic doesn't seem to work, but the link does. The url to the pic on imageshack is dead, so maybe it has an error in it, or the pic is gone.

Pete,
Click on the signature it should take you to yahoo pictures not imageshack. I think I tried do do something on imageshack a while back but I dont know why you would be sent there?

If I click it goes to the right place, but what I'm clicking on is a little red X where a pic is supposed to be, and it points to imageshack, but doesn't exist: http://img77.imageshack.us/img77/9813/happyxo9.jpg. If you look in your profile where you set it up, you will see that url.

Dave,
Good to hear from you! Thanks for the reply! Seems as though this works for some and not for some others?

Right, the link to yahoo works, but the link to imageshack where the pic that's supposed to show in the sig doesn't.

Edit: Ohhh, Dave Y, you mean you can see the pic in the sig? I mean without clicking? All I see is the red X where a pic is supposed to be. Even the direct link doesn't work.

hangin ,
Yes I can see the picture. If you cant see it the problem is with your server.I have that problem at work. Some addresses it wont show the pic.

Tapper, If all goes well I may be able to double production this year.
Which would be nice as I am starting to build a very nice clientle.

Yea me too, as I have spent a lot of money! I bought a dump truck to haul sap with. It was too hard on my ranger to haul sap. It will be alot faster with a bigger tank.

Dave, if everyone else can see it, you're right, something preventing me from seeing it. Funny, I use imageshack all the time, and nothing has ever been blocked from there before. I'm at home, so no corporate firewalls in the way or anything, very strange.
