Adding a picture to your signature

I've been noticing a lot of people don't know how to link an image to a build page or whatever you want. So I figured I'd give out some instructions.

Back up your old sig code first to notepad just incase you want to go back.

This the code you will edit. One is for the link to your page, the other is the link to your image.

Code:

[url=http://www.BUILDURL]
[img]http://IMGURL[/img][/url]

• Copy the url to your build page and paste it somewhere
• Copy the url to your image and paste it somewhere
• Where it says BUILDURL remove that text and paste the url to your build page. Do not remove the ] at the end and there is no space between your url and that bracket.
• Where is says IMGURL remove that text and paste the url to your image you want to use. Do not remove the [ at the end.

Example

Code:

[url=https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/aw9ds-build.220163]
[ATTACH=full]2048792[/ATTACH][/url]

If you have questions let me know.

 

I am not computer savvy enough to figure all this out. This seems to be a very antiquated way to have to post pics. I have been on many forums such as Craig's where all you need do is load from your stored pics. I guess this process costs money to set up and this forum just can,t swing it. Or maybe it is just another thing I can't understand. When I try to post pics it wants me to post a URL something or other, I don't know where this number is to come from, I look at my photos and those numbers are not there.

 

use the

Code:

to make your OP easier m8


so

Code:

[url=PASTEYOURBUILDTHREADLINKHERE] [img] the imagine you want [/img] [/url]

 

otherwise

 

Do I have to use photo bucket to add a photo? Like if I just want to add something but not a link to a build thread?

 

OK I'll fix it soon.

The pic has to be hosted somewhere. You can use anything you like to manage the photos. I just had a photo bucket account when I wrote this.

 

This isn't actually to post pics. You can do that by clicking on upload a file and choosing something form your computer. Or you can click on the image box which asks you to paste a URL of the picture you want to use from another site. The instructions I posted are for when you want your signature pic to be clickable to take you to another web page such as your build page for your truck.

Haha thanks.

Welcome to TW.

 

Hello All, I got my 1st New Vehicle in over 20 years, and I'm loving it. Its a 2018 Tacoma 2WD SR5 V6. I've had it for about 1 month now, and the only thing I've done to it is add a license plate frame and a home made TRD decals on the bed. I need to get some side steps because it would make things easier getting in and out. Hope to have a lot of fun and get some help/tips with this group
