Question on links in signatures

[Fred Eberle]

Bob,
First let me say all the help you have given to get me to get set up has been excellent and easy to follow.
One more question if I may.
Notice some of the members have their "My Photos" or "WCI Gallery" attached to their posts.
How do they do that ?


p.s. Thank you for the great site, I am really enjoying it !

Bob's probably busy getting the next edition of WCI out, so let me see if I can help...

First, you need to put one or more photos into your member gallery.
http://www.woodcarvingillustrated.co...alleries-5717/

Then, in the beige area on the left, under Carving Community, click on Carver Image Galleries. When the new page opens, up near the top left is a green bar that says My Photos · My Albums · My Favorites. Click on My Photos. This will open up the page containing all the photos you have uploaded to the gallery. (Photos posted with a message on the forum are NOT automatically placed in your gallery). Up at the very tip-top of the page is the URL for your page. It'll look something like
h t t p://www.woodcarvingillustrated.com/gallery/showgallery.php/cat/500/ppuser/3705 (this one is mine). High-lite and copy the URL. On the top green bar, you should see User CP. Click this and it takes you to your personal info page.
On the left side under Control Panel is Edit Signature Click this. In the edit block that comes up, type

My [ url= and then paste in that URL you copied a bit ago. followed with

] WCI Gallery[ /url ]

It'll look like this when you are finished
My [ url=http://www.woodcarvingillustrated.com/gallery/showgallery.php/cat/500/ppuser/3705] WCI Gallery[/url ] except that I had to add a space at the front between [ and url and at the back between url and ] or else you wouldn't have been able to see this Make sure your typing does not have any spaces at all between the [ and ]

Scroll down, click the Save Signature button, and you should be finished.

Thanks indeed Claude.

I'll put some detail in the title and move to the FAQ forum so that it can be used for reference.

Thank you Claude,
Everything worked perfectly as usual on this site.

Glad I could help, Fred. That "Great Spirit..." carving is fantastic!
