There are certain questions that get asked often on forums. Here are the answers to the most common of them.

How do I put an Image in my Signature?
First you must have an image to use. There are size limits, check the rules for details. Once you have this image, you must upload it to a hosting site (i.e. Photobucket, Image Shack, etc.). Once you've done this, you will be supplied with various codes and hyperlinks. You need to copy the Image Code or BB code. This will be the one that is surrounded with the tags. Now go to your User Control Panel (CP) and click Edit Signature. Paste the image code in the text box provided and click Save Signature. And that's it. You now have an image in your signature.

How do upload and avatar?
This is a little different. First, there are image size limits as well. Check the rules. Then, there are two options. You can upload an image to a hosting site, as described above. Then go to your User CP and click Edit Avatar. You will want to select "Use Custom Avatar". Then you have two options. If the image is being hosted online as described above, you can paste the direct link for the image (the plain url provided) where it says "Options 1 - Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website". Or you can upload the image directly from your own computer. Click the Browse button next to "Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer" and select the file for the picture you wish to use. Then click Save Changes. And you're done.

How do I post a link?
First copy the url of the page you wish to link to. Then, type into your post the text you wish you be the link. Highlight this text and clink the hyperlink button (the one with the image of the globe with a chain link). Paste the url you copied into the pop up box that appears and click ok. You now have a working hyperlink.
