Express yourself: use  a selection of banners as your personal forum signature.

Dear Tanya I'm trying to get a banner into my profile...All I get is the URL in my signature...? No picture of the 727 cockpit? Can you assist?
I've copied and pasted as intructed in the brief intructions here in the general forum. But The image just doesn't show? :-/

Hi Bernardo.

Here is how you do it:

How to use:

  1. COPY the URL line below a banner you like
  2. Open 'Edit profile' section of your forum and PASTE the URL into the 'Signature' box.

Please note that some forums may require to add .... tags.

Now I'll show you an example using the first 727 Banner:

I select the image as my signature banner.
Then I copy the http://www.captainsim.com/user/dl/x727/b721captain.jpg underneath it. You can should be able to copy the link by clicking the RIGHT mouse button (while the mouse pointer is over the url link) and select "Copy link location" from the menu box that pops up.
I then paste the copied link between these: [url][/url] so that ONLY the banner image shows up in my signature.
So the end result should look like this:

AhA! Mark: Thanks for you guidance....I've always been bad at this,I was missing the Nd code I guess? I added them manually; I thought they would come automatically in this forum? :)

Hey Mark See! I managed! :)

Thanks

Hi Bernardo.

Copy everything in the code box and paste it into your profile.

Hi Berlopez,

Don't bother to thank me. I see Mark was right. I thought there was not room for "large" signatures, e.g. images + text. That was the reason why I suggested to remove the text, to make room for your banners.

Hm i see that the 757 banner is not used so often. But i've got him now. Thanks for the assist.

do not know if I've done well, help please, just get the link of the banner
