How do I add my car model and Sig picture Options

[94wrc]

Hello,

I joined the other day and notice that you guys have your model listed below your name, I cannot see how I would get mine there, I have tried editing my profile but all I can change is my DOB, AOL ID and location but no mention of car at all.

Also I want to have a picture on my signature, I thought I uploaded one but all it shows is the link to it and not the picture????????

Any help appreciated.

Thank You

Nathan

I did that and first off got a message saying it was too big, it wasn't, then it accepted it but only shows the link not the pic, if you click the link you can see the pic but I wanted the pic there all the time.

Thanks Anyway.

I did use the insert "Image button" copied the link from photobucket, and inserted it in the box, it first said the pic was too big (the pic is 18,066 bytes and 283x156 pixels so it should be ok) then said nothing and just showed the link, no pic.

Thanks

your pic is too high, sig must be 400x125 or smaller.

*here just scaled it down to 230x122, link:

if it should look like this:

--------------------------------------
1994 JDM ST205 WRC with 17" OZ Chrono's wearing 215/45/17 Eagle F1's. HKS Induction Kit, Blitz DV, Decat and full SS System, Blitz SBC-iD and Power Meter running at 1.12Bar = 17mpg and a lot of fun



--------------------------------------

than you have incorrect size of picture... (height is 150 not 125)

what do you mean? put your car model on the pic? i cant photoedit for my life but check the two links i posted above for two guys that can.

[94wrc]

No I mean, below your name you have '97 ST Hatchback, whereas I have nothing, I cant find anywhere to add what model I have in my profile.

Thanks

Done it, phew.

Thank You Very Much

Nathan

[celicaST]

no problem. just helping a fellow nathan out

one thing though, generally on this site people refer to our style of rearend as the hatchback whereas the coupe is like this

no big deal as i know that coupe generally means a 2 door hardtop car. just the way that we distinguish the two styles on here.

[94wrc]

Another Nathan they are quite rare over here. No offence to anyone but that looks horrible, i will change mine to hatchback straight away In the UK that type of car is called a Saloon.

Thanks
