you have to upload an image, then get the address it creates, then add it to your sig with the "[img] http://www.xxx.com [/img]".

If you have a CorvetteForum homepage, upload the picture(s) that you want in you sig. then go to "My Profile" here in the forum and enter your sig as you want it to appear, you need to learn some basic HTML or UBB or whatever it is if you don't already know it. Check your mail.

Re: Need help posting Signature page (MardiGrasMan)
You have to make a "home Page" and upload your picture to it. The corvette forum goes to that site to get the img .
If you click on the home pages ( not HOME ) tab it will take you to the setup page to make your home page. There you will up load your pictures.
The next step is the tricky one.
When you go to the profile page on corvette forum and select signature click on the image button and you will get the img /img . That's the HTML tag for start image, end image.
Between the img xxxxxxxxx /img inset your home page address. When you set up your home page it gave you the address something like this..... http://corvettforum.net/c4/ocalaguy/
Note.... there is NO www in the address. Insert this address between the img tags. Also you need to put at the end of the address the file name of the picture you uploaded something like this...... http://corvettforum.net/c4/ocalaguy/mycorvette.jpg
Remember... everything has to be the same .jpg and .JPG are too different items. Type your address and photo name just as it is.
Do one picture and then review your work on the preview screen of the signature window. If you did it correct the photo will be on the top. Go to you original post asking for help and you will see the photo on the bottom of it.
Feel free to email me for more help or if this is not clear.
