Well some of you know me as a non user of images in my signature. Well I believe it may be time to change that now.
So dear friends and interested (if there are any hehe) could you please help me out with some ideas? 1. How do you link an image in your sig, say if I have a image do i just link it from my server? 2. What image do you think would be suitable? 3. New comment, I can´t come runninng all the time.. cause there are so few that cries wolf here I noted.. Well any suggestions are helpful! Thanx! |

Wolf, check the lady nightshade's custom portraits for nice portraits
www.planetbaldursgate.com/nightshade/index2.html As for your other questions, I need help with that too!!!!!! As far as I can understand it, you should go somewhere (for instance Angelfire.com) where you can upload images. Then you can check the help link of the Forum to learn how to link the uploaded image. However, this doesn't really work for me, please, if you know what I'm doing wrong, read and answer my Poll: My New Sig thread |

Ok, I haven't really seen what images that you have going, but you make an animated GIF first. Once you have the animated Gif, you upload it to a webpage somewhere. Once you get the image where you want it, you just point to it with (image=http://www.whereverpicis.com/image.gif) I find that the best way to do this is to load up the webpage that I am uploading the GIF to and right click on the image. Then I select properties. This will show you where the EXACT location of your image is at. You just cut and paste this into the (image=pastehere). Now, I am using parenthesis there, but you need to put it into brackets []. Also, you will need to go to your profile and modify it. At the bottom of this there is your signature. Just put the whole image thing there and it should show up. If you are having a hard time with animated GIFs, you can locate someone that can host it for you, or you can "borrow" there pics. I am using one from http://www.planescape-torment.com You can use any animated GIF.
Mine is []image=http://www.planescape-torment.com/images/SP_Horror.gif[] But again, you don't close the bracket at the beginning, nor do you open it at the end like mine. Play around with it and you'll figure it out. That's how I did it. Jon pointed me in the right direction too, and so did Memnoch. We have a lot of helpful people around. |

You definately need something wolflike...
Doing your own images? as in you make images? I wanted to get an image that suited my nickname... you should do the same Wolfwere, or just wolf? |

Oh hey, that is one cool looking wolf, do you mind if I "borrow" it? My sister loves wolves and I think that's a pic that she doesn't have.

Grrrgwll!
Arrghus!!! Damn, *running around, biting mouse stepping on keyboard here..* why in the overfrozen hells won´t if work! Sylent. Well i was figuring about drawing my own little wolf but until I´ve tried it out I´m having a go at a picture I have modify from a render fromFallout Brother hood of steel I think it is.. He´s really to cute for now, but yes i do my own images. I prefer the wolf, more subtle nd i mor control than any shapers.. They smell foul and are a bunch of badies antway.. I´m kind of nice if you get to know me.. |

Definitely a wolf, Wolfgir! A nice fuzzy four-footed cute wolfie to have his ears scritched...heehee! Uh, don't mind me, I like doggies and canines and such! Good luck to you and Melusine getting those sigs to work.
Melusine- maybe you have the wrong file name in your link? Check on your website to see what your picture is actually called then check your link in the profile. Cloudy |
