To change your signature go to User CP > Change Signature. Find a picture and either upload it to photobucket or imageshack and insert the tags into your signature.

So this code:
[IMG]http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q236/amywinehouseforum/siggie3.png[/IMG]
Would turn into:
[IMG]http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q236/amywinehouseforum/siggie3.png

Remember that signatures must be no larger than 500x200 in size.
If you ask nicely someone might be able to create you a signature but it's not guaranteed.
Hope that helps.
If you need anymore help just ask. ;)

The picture under a members username is called an 'avatar'. You can change your avatar by going to your User CP > Change Avatar. Here you can either choose an avatar from the forums galleries or upload your own avatar from your computer. Does that help? :)

I try to change my avatar but it won't work.
I deleted my avatar, but then when I upload my new one, the old one re-appears. *confused*
Any solutions???


Nevermind ;)

Wino, apologies for this basic question about avatars. I think i've managed to pick an image for the left-hand side of the screen, but how do i manage to put some text-a quote from a song, for instance (i notice you've got one from 'Stronger than Me' ) -under my name.

Cheers,
ned.

P.S. thanks for reply to my Introduction.

User CP > Edit Profile > and then on the right hand-side of the page it will say 'Custom User Title' and you type in the text you want. Does that help? EDIT: I see you've already figured it out. :)

Yeh, surprisingly enough I managed to sort it. Cheers for reply, anyway. Over in Spain at moment and fingers crossed she´ll do her slot at Benicassim festival. I´m quietly confident she will, despite her cancelling the gigs in U.K--do u know if she done her slot at Oxygen festival in Dublin ? She´s rescheduled the Summerpops concert for the 18th of July (I think) and she daren´t cancel this for a second time. And so with Benicassim being only a few days later, I think she´ll probably do it. The sun will do her good, anyway !!

I don't know what's going on but I heard she's cancelled alot of gigs due to exhaustion. Don't know if this Benicassim festival counts!?

Hi, Sorry Wino, I know this is probably so obvious, but I changed my avatar ages ago but the old one (NOOB) is still on, Why hasn't it come off yet? Thanks, Soaked In Soul

That sometimes happens. remove your avatar and delete your cookies and internet history and then select your new avatar and see if it works. let me know if it doesnt.
