How do you post the quotes from a previous thread then reply?I see where it is transfered without retyping it.
Also how do you put a pic in your signature and what is the max size? thanks Lonnie.:cool:

Then you enter the URL of it in your user CP. I believe you can post it in the galery and use that URL , but not certain about that. :cool:

I dont think it will work. I just put a few of my pics in the gallery and I dont think that will work.

What you need to do is have a host for the pic. What I meen by this is a web page to host the picture on. Then transfer from that web page to your signiture. If that makes any sence at all. I'm not a computer guru but we could all use some help here.

Can anyone help us here??

I tried to reply two times but my directions must have code in em cuz you couldn't read it so I did it as a jpg:)

I forgot,to get the URL of your pic right click on it and go to properties and copy the URL.
Heres yours racemore

I am having trouble also.

You can copy anything by highlighting it and right clicking your mouse. Out of the list left click on copy. Then go to where you want to put the picture and right click again. Left click on paste and there it is. It works real good to copy anything and save it or send it to someone.

Dave...I did what you said to my gallery pic. Now I have a small red X there...LOL:rolleyes: Probobly two big of a pic I suppose I might have to photo shop it. Are you going to make it down here this weekend with your boat???? We should have a good crowd;)

Racemore,
Try putting a / after the [ and before the i in the one after the URL only.I had a hard time getting mine to work the first time too:(

CompKing

Bob,
The box with the X means there is a problem with the URL.Make sure you have it right including spacing.
I have to pull docks next weekend so I don't think I will be able to make it:(

I tried your and it works so there must be something wrong in the spacing.There should be none,make sure your URL starts right after the ] and the same after the URL and the [

:cool: I did notice that in the URL you tried earlier it had thumb at the end.You could right click on the pic in my last post and hit properties and copy the URL from it,for the full size one:) Now all ya need is a Scream and Fly pocket protector:D

I've got mine done also. Do you think its to long and I should shorten it up? or should I just leave it.

Dave I owe you a beer the next time you come over

Ok guys. So I must not be copying the right thing. I got the words, but where's the picture?
I posted it in the gallery, right click, properties, copy the address, paste it in the box for the signiture?
I'm corn fused:confused:

Had to re-read a few steps. And unlock my fingers.
Now, just gotta make a few adjustments, .............
