I want to use a pic. of my puppy in my signature, but I can not for the life of me figure out how to do that. I have read through that whole vb codes thing and it didn't make much sense!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

I think you need to put [img] before the address and then [/img] after it.

I'm sure someone else could explain it better than me but I'll try

you need to put this
[ img ] [/img ] but with out the spaces.....you put your http thingy in between them


I hope this helps

Here's a thread explaining how to post photos.
Instead of imagestation I'd use Photobucket.com

Yahoo doesn't allow direct linking (posting pictures) onto other sites, neither does Imagestation as suggested in the following thread;

Okay, Let's see if this worked!

[gotalonglildoggie]

Okay close but no cigar!! Hmmm... I typed in the [img] and the other one, but it said I do not have permission to access from that url or something! GRRRR!!!

Okay Ill try again!

I think you have to take off the ? at the end of .jpg
i'm not sure, i think this has happened to someone else before and it seemed to help.

[gotalonglildoggie]

Arrrrrgggghhh! Now maybe?

[gotalonglildoggie]

Okay! No question mark now!

[gotalonglildoggie]

getting closer...

[gotalonglildoggie]

now it said the requested url was not found on this server!!

[gotalonglildoggie]

Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! So confusing!!!!

[Katiesmom]

you can't use yahoo thats why your not getting it...you need to use imagestation or photobucket

[gotalonglildoggie]

Okay... If this doesn't work I will have to try again after I get some nice pics of him on the digital camera. I had some really nice ones, but we had to reboot the computer and I lost them all. I have them as my photo for the yahoo messenger directory though and I was wondering if I can copy it from there and use it in my signature. Oh I have it in the msn member directory too. Would it do it from there????

I think it is a problem with wherever you are hosting the pictures. Some sites do not allow you to share images with other sites or other users.
