How do you make a signature?
So once you look around the forums a bit everyone has really cool signatures, yes they do look cool nice job making them guys :) I’ve tried making mine but can’t figure out how to insert images and gifs, can anyone help? I use an iPad btw if that changes anything
You make a signature by clicking the "My account" hyperlink. To insert an image you either can use an image hosting site, such as imgur or postimg.cc. The other way you can insert images or gifs is to click the blue button that kind of looks like the Earth. The button is above the end of the second row. After you click the button you can paste the url link.
I don't know alot about this; sorry if it doesn't work or its not enough....
I see you managed to make one! I'll add one little thing if that's okay.
The maximum display width of an image in a signature is 650px. Scaling the image using the little earth icon doesn't actually resize images, so the image is still full-sized, including the file size. If you resize your images on your ipad before uploading them, you won't have to scale the images afterwards and the file size will be way smaller!
Why is this important? Some larger threads are very image-heavy, and your browser has to load them all in one-by-one which makes some threads load really poorly, which you may have noticed. That's because a lot of people put huge images in their signature which all have to be fully downloaded each time, which takes some time depending on one's internet speed.
Hope that makes sense!
Aha nope, you where very helpful and well yay now I have a signature lol. Thanks for the help :D
