I think I know how to do it, but could someone rung through it again.

There is a twist though. The pic I want to use is a GIF I have in my profile page here on Lit:

http://www.literotica.com/stories/memberpage.php?uid=46700

See the cool penguin? I believe, IIRC, that the only way to put a pic in my sig is to reference the URL for the file. I know that pic is stored here on Lit because I can se the URL when it loads. But the URL is so long and goes by so fast that I can't copy it down and Internet Exploder won't let me cut and paste it. Nor can I open it in another window. Netscape used to let me mouse over something and it would give me the URL but apparently IE is brain damaged in that regard.

Help? How do I do this?

Thanks,
STG

vBulletin is mostly developed using PHP, Perl and uses a MySQL database to store and pull user info/stats/pics etc
Thanks, the URL seems right as when I click on it I see the GIF displayed, but as you can see it isn't displaying in my sig.

I noticed in that portion of my "Edit profile" page that it says " code is OFF", and I do not see any option anywhere for turning that on. Is that something I have to ask for, or am I glossing over it somewhere, or is it unrelated? Thanks
 
i see why now , they dont allow the tag in signatures so i guess there not allowing pics in sigs.
 
Other people are or were doing it. I have seen Kasha and other's do it. Maybe there is a way around it. I'll ask them. Thanks.

Cut and paste this:

<img src="http://www.literotica.com/stories/data/photos/Shy_Tall_Guy_467003b87e5d5a5ed8.gif">

into your signature line.

You need to use the HTML image tag instead of the vB code when "IMG command is off"

To get the URL of a picture in IE5 or later, right click and select "properties" you can highlight and copy the URL from the properties dialogue.

one problem though...
I'm on webtv... no pc... :(

Jailbait the problem with your picture is the URL is not properly formted

you have
Code:
http://www.freeavatars.netvpimages/hotfemales/fhhd113.gif

I think you need
Code:
http://www.freeavatars.net/vpimages/hotfemales/fhhd113.gif

Notice the extra "/" before vpimages.


Which should give you the follwoing image on your signature.
