How to upload signatures and avatars to your profile.
First, I'd make sure the picture you want to use as an avatar is 100x100 pixels or lessNow paste a direct link to your avatar in the avatar URL box.
(The image code that stars with [url=https:// will not work for these.). I'd also make sure it's square first, or it may become distorted. Then click on your name underneath the area where your avatar will go. This will take you to your profile page. (You can also go there from clicking on your name in the member's list, or anywhere that your name appears in blue on this forum.)
Select 'Edit Profile' near the top of the page,
then choose the radio button that says 'Use only the Uploaded/Linked' and click the blue letters there, or you can click the 'Upload/Link' link underneath the profile preview box to the right.
Then paste in the link from you image hosting site. Make sure it's a direct link.
Your new avatar should appear immediately. If it doesn't, check the link.
You'll also want to save any changes made to you avatar.
--------------------
To upload a signature, just click on the personal tab beside the avatar tab. (Images that are 500px by 250px work well for these.)
Scroll down to the signature box and paste in the URL to the photo in you image hosting account.
You'll want to save any changes to your signature.
