Re: I need help!

  • Here's what i do:

    -right click on the image you want, and go down to Properties and then highlight the url address it gives you...

    -go to tinyurl.com and put it in to get a shorter web link. copy that link and...

    -go to stlwed.com and click on Get Help with your Siggy towards the bottom of the page. paste the tinyurl link in and resize your pic as needed; you can fiddle with the numbers it gives you so it can be made smaller

    -copy *that* new link and go back to The Nest. when you go to Chat/Community, you'll see the option to Edit Your Profile; click on that. In the box for your signature, paste in the link! If you want it to have a space before and after it so it doesn't mess up anything else in your siggy, you have to type in <br>, which stands for 'break', before and after the link.

    Confusing, isn't it? Big Smile

     The correct code would actually be <br> before your code for the picture and </br> at the end.

  • LOL, apparently there's a few different ways to do it.  This is what I do: 

    1 - find image, right click and get the url for the image location, copy this (I right-click, copy)

    2 - Enter this code into the siggy box on your "my profile page"  replacing with your own url:

    <img src="http://your url here" width=160> 

    3 - If the picture is portrait not landscape, change the word "width" to "height".  You can increase and decrease the number to make it the size you want.
