How do I...?

[She-Wolf]

Hello folks. A lot of you have a picture as a signature when you post, which adds to the ambience of the forum, if I can say it that way.

Well I don't have a picture, but I would like to put a small doc on. It is pinned on the shelf above my computer and it is a gentle 'fun' thing in pidgin German that my best beloved had in his office ( he is an electrical engineer and he worked for a British firm making radars). It makes me smile so I thought it might work here as a signature picture for others to get a grin out of - but how do I put such a thing on please?

I will scan it to make a bitmap, but need to know what size limit the jpeg must be and how to actually insert it.

Ta

( if some think it I would remove)

i think Danlisa would be the person to speak to about sigs

This is the thread with the Sig requirements http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ure+size+limit

You can either add a signature on your own or ask someone else to do it for you.

In any case you go to your User CP (on the top left hand side of your screen) and you edit your signature. You just import her as a direct link (from imageshak or anywhere else you like) and that's it.

In your User CP (nxt to FAQ & Rules) there is an option to 'Edit Signature'.

You can either type your 'doc' in there and it will display under every post you make or you can (as you say) scan it in. The image dimesions should be 400 x 120 pixels and no more than 25-30kb ish (less is better).

After you have added either 'words' or 'image' click on 'save changes'. Then your done.

For image hosting, most use Imageshack or Photobucket.

Edit - Right that's it. You've all got to slow down. When a lady say's 'JUMP' do you all say 'How High'?:rotfl: Go back to sea, all of you! That's an order.

If you think it is bad taste tho, tell me and I will take it off again

It has nothing to do with bad taste. The signature is yours and it's something you want. The rest of us will just have to accept it, or......go to sea by following Danlisa's orders

ok, didn't bother with the jpeg as could not reduce to a small enough size and still keep legibility. So what do you think of this?

Is it too much? Is it offensive? Should I stretch it out - would that be a problem for some folks?
