englishmen Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 Hi all I'm a noob here and I'm trying to add a sig but all that shows up is the code, any suggestions what I am doing wrong?I want the following to appear in my sig:<a href="http://www.ccleaner.com/"><img src="/[path_to_image]/bigger_link.gif" border=0 alt="CCleaner - Freeware Windows Optimization"></a><a href="http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=0&t=62"><img border="0" alt="Get Firefox!" title="Get Firefox!" src="http://sfx-images.mozilla.org/affiliates/Buttons/110x32/take.gif"/></a>and a Nlite one if possible along the same size.
Synapse Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 (edited) have to use the BBCode forum tags, not HTML.so it would be... had to put it in the quote tags so the forum wouldn't treat it as a picture..[*IMG]path here[*/IMG] for images[*URL=http://www.websitehere.com]name of link[*/URL] for links.. etc..(without the asteriks "*")clickable image would be....[*url=http://www.websitehere.com][*img]http://www.imagehere.com/image.gif[*/img][*/url]since i'm uberly bored....[*URL=http://www.ccleaner.com][*IMG]http://img126.echo.cx/img126/6261/biggerlink5yx.gif[*/IMG][*/URL][*URL=http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/][*IMG]http://img126.echo.cx/img126/2641/take0sp.gif[*/IMG][*/URL]just remove all the *'s and put that as your signature, don't have an image for Nlite, but you should be able to figure out how to add it by looking at my example.

englishmen Posted June 24, 2005 Author Posted June 24, 2005 (edited) Thanks for the help, the Ccleaner sig is now working but the firefox one was not the same size as the Ccleaner so I got another from http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates/homepage and I cant get it working again . Also I've got a Nlite image from the Official site but its not click able. Do you have any idea how I can make it link to the official site? Again sorry for being a noob Hay look I've got a sig Edited June 24, 2005 by englishmen
Synapse Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 just upload whatever picture you want to www.imageshack.us and use the "direct link to image" link. put it inbetween the URL code as done above.easiest way i can think of doing it is...get the "direct link to image" link from imageshack.us... then hit the URL box to make a URL... make the link point whereever you want. in the "Title for the link" box, type in [*IMG]linktopicturehere[*/IMG] (without the *'s)
englishmen Posted June 24, 2005 Author Posted June 24, 2005 I think I now know how do to it but can you tell me why my Ccleaner sig and firefox sigs look like different sizes when they are both 110x32?
Synapse Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 checked, and yes they are both the same size, it just looks that way cause the Firefox one has smaller letters then the CCleaner one.just an optical illusion.
englishmen Posted June 24, 2005 Author Posted June 24, 2005 Are you aware of any site where I can get more Nlite sig images? I have tried the Official site but its not 110x32 which I want just so they all look the same. Also in a ideal world I would have 4 110x32 sig images side by side have you any ideas what I could use as a 4th?
Synapse Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 (edited) don't know of any other sites that have Nlite images, you could resize an exsisting one, or make a new one..btw, so the mods don't jump all over you.. (no offence to the mods lol)according to the rules:5. Images in signatures shall NOT exceed a total of 300x100 and 80kb. Flash and animated sigs are not permitted.110 + 110 + 110 = 330 x 32. so if you add 1 more image you must put it under the other 2... so you get..110 + 110 = 220 x 64110and have room for 1 more 110 x 32 image.

englishmen Posted June 25, 2005 Author Posted June 25, 2005 First of thanks for all your help Bi0haZarD I cant stop playing with my sig now. I have attempted to make my own nlite one I'm not quite sure tho if it looks the same as the others could you please advise me of how to make it more like the other 2, thanks.
Yzöwl Posted June 26, 2005 Posted June 26, 2005 5. Images in signatures shall NOT exceed a total of 300x100 and 80kb. Flash and animated sigs are not permitted. You can enter max 4 lines of text in signature or signature image. Avatars are to be a maximum of 100x100 pixels. If your avatar or signature goes above these guidelines they will be taken off and the member contacted via PM.Drop all the cr*p, and just leave the LFC pic!
Tarun Posted June 26, 2005 Posted June 26, 2005 The soccer (english football I think) picture would need to be resized too.5. Images in signatures shall NOT exceed a total of 300x100 and 80kb. Flash and animated sigs are not permitted. You can enter max 4 lines of text in signature or signature image.. Avatars are to be a maximum of 100x100 pixels. If your avatar or signature goes above these guidelines they will be taken off and the member contacted via PM. Any signatures found to be attached to a thread and used as a signature host is not allowed on MSFN and will be removed. Members with slow connection can disable other members signatures when reading posts by going to: My Control - Options - Board Settings.So that sig needs a lot of work dude.
englishmen Posted June 27, 2005 Author Posted June 27, 2005 (edited) I never really had a sig before so I'm working on it. Tarun do you know how I can display my system specs with out being so big? Edited June 27, 2005 by englishmen
