Actually, I'd rather not make one that stinks. Laughing   Maybe one dripping with primoridal ooze and goo, instead.

But I can't figure out where to access my signature on my profile.   Clue anyone?

At the top left of your screen, you will find a 'Preferences' link.  Click it and you'll see the option to add a sig and some other optional stuff, too.

Umm ... as far as I know, sigs still require html to add links and pics.  The [ sblock ] feature does work in them now, though.

Links require use of html code- to put in a link, simply use, uh... < ahref= "where you want to link" > text you want to have it read < /a> with the a space between the 'a' and the 'href' and none between either '<' and what follows it.


Pictures... are a bit harder. Just use the 'Embed in web page (HTML)' text, and it should do it.

you put in images using the {img /} tag.  While you can include all sorts of fields, the important one is "src", where you specify the location of the image.  So, for example, to put in my little self-portrait, you use:


{img style="vertical-align: text-top;" src="http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/150/f/2010/051/5/6/Self_Portrait___Failure_by_villain42.png" alt="Self-Portrait" height="100" /}


Though you should replace { for < and } with >.  Stupid forum weird formatting means I can't show it correctly as it does something funky with the html you give it which is killing my attempts to show it accurately.

Really? What does it do with the HTML?

Fascinating... So if you delete the screwy html code from your post, it doesn't fix the title...

I sense a new trick brewing...
