Elementary, my dear Blaze.

See up above, where all those clickable things are?

Click the "Img" one. You will see this: (http://

Now, put a url from a photobucket or imageshack hosted picture, like say..... this:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v605/Swiftman/capn_crunch.jpg

Put that right after the [img], no spaces, then click the Img button again to close the tag, thus making this:

[ img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v605/Swiftman/capn_crunch.jpg)

(ignore the space after the first bracket. I put it there to keep it as an incomplete tag, and thus viewable)

After that, you've done it! Put that completed combination of coding pasted into your sig (modifiable in your profile, but you knew that)

It should end up like this:

Gag me with a spoon, you guys need to brush up on your 80s pop-culture.

Weird. A few hours ago, Swift was explaining to BlazeHeatnix on how to post sig images and now we are talking about references to 80s pop culture and various sugary foods.

Here's an example: (http://OMG!!! Teh URL goes here!!1.gif)

Easy, just make sure it's an actual URL.

YAMINOMALEX TO TEH RESCOO!1!!twelve!@!one!!

The recommended image formats are JPEG (.jpg) CompuServe GIF (.gif) or .PNG (.png). Bitmap (.bmp)  formatted images will probably not show up.

You must host the picture on a picture host server. If you just find an image off of Google, copy and paste the URL from there, that is called direct linking or hot linking. It steals bandwidth from the site that you linked the image from, and is frowned upon cuz stealing = teh bad.

Also, some websites use a special code. If someone direct links an image from their site, the image comes up as, "K DON'T DIRECT LINK, FWEL. KTHANXBAI"

Therefore, you need a seperate site to host your pictures;  I sugges either Photobucket or Imageshack.


After you have had the image hosted onto a reliable image hosting server, copy and paste the URL in between these tags: (Make sure you don't have any spaces between the URL and the code. Otherwise, it won't work.)
Code:
(http://)


Here's an example:

Blaze, if you still are having troubles with it, talk to me on MSN (it's in my profile) and you can give me the image and I'll host and code it for you, mkay?

DAMMIT! Bladegash, stop confusing us mere mortals so! By saying that, I can only think that you ARE a girl, and after saying e got the girl, you greeted yourself to us, but.... GRAH! Maybe I'm not thinking right and this is a total, out-of-the-barrel answer, and I'm not seeing it due to excessive DOS cloudings or something.

Do an image shearch, save it to your hard drive and upload it onto photobucket. It's not that hard.
