signature pic

I have tried several times to attach a pic of my truck to my signature and can't get it to work. I think I'm doing it right. I did notice that on the bottom of my CP it says I'm not permitted to upload images to my signature. Anybody know why that is? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Bob

www.photobucket.com

A pic hosting site.

Put your pics out on a host such as photobucket and then you can copy one to the sig or to your album.

I think you can click on properties and then copy the url and paste that to the sig. Been awhile so can't remember for sure. I know you can from a host.

See my post here. https://www.f150online.com/forums/3464911-post4.html

Yes, you can link to your pictures that you upload here. That is the whole point of uploading pictures to your album on this site.

You need to resize that pic - its way too big for a sig.

Agreed. Try and keep sig images around the 500x100 size, please.

The sig is WAY TOO BIG and you have an extra set of img tags.

Here is a version that is around the right size. It is 476x150.

Thanks, BFlare...

I've changed his signature to reflect your resized version...

The King - Please save the signature that BF has provided for you and relocate it over to your own gallery so that you may link it from there.

No problem. I will leave it in my gallery until he uploads it into his.

You need to upload the sig picture into your album then copy the link to the image into your signature. Just make sure that the image that you are uploading into your album does not violate the following:
Maximum File Size per Picture 488.3 KB
Maximum Picture Dimensions 800 by 600 Pixels
