Hey Tom

Kania2k1 · July 14, 2001

I just set up my yahoo account, and I need a hand putting a pic in my signature. I clicked on the thumbnail and when into the properties of the picture, but I can't seem to make it work in my sig. I know to my the "img and "/img" before and after the pics. What am I doing wrong?

Kania-

1)make sure you have the [ ] around the img

2) believe (but not sure) that the link has to start immediately after the . Dont put a space or a line, start it right after. I have had this problem.

Are you sure that Yahoo lets you link directly to the pic?

Newbie is right, put the [] around the img and /img with the link between the two with no spaces anywhere.

I think at one time the yahoo picture album would let you post a pic, but I don't think they do any more. I'll test one out in the test forum if you want to check there.

Thanks for the help guys. I think I may have to break down and pay for a site. Dammit!

I found clubphoto.com which is free and lets you post direct links so everyone can see the pix without going to the site. It is much like photopoint.com used to be prior to starting to charge for their services. The only catch with clubphoto.com is that your albums/pictures can only be kept for 90 days. I am not sure what happens after that. I assume that you could create new albums with the same pix but you would have to go back to wherever you posted them and change the url for the photo. The pictures I posted in the "With or Without?" post in PICTURE POST section of the forum are from there.
