    Hi Charlie, let me try to explain and see if this works for you.
    1. Start by saving the image you want to use to a site like Photobucket.com
      Clicking on the UPLOAD button on their site walks you through a really quick sign up so you can start loading images till the cows come home.
    2. Once you have your image there, copy the image url. This can be found next to the image or even by right clicking on the posted image and selecting "Copy Image URL".
    3. Return to the forum here and navigate to your signature at http://bike-talk.com/account/signature
    4. In the signature editor click where the image should go, then click on the image tool (looks like a postcard with a mountain to the right of the smiley face).
    5. You will now see a pop-up asking you to enter the URL of the image. This is where you paste the URL you copied in step #2. Click Insert.
    6. Now click Save Changes below the editor.
    7. DONE.
    Okay, so it takes a few steps to insert a signature image but when you think about it, most only do this once if at all.

    For those reading this, please use discretion when adding an image to your signature. Keep the size to a minimum. Not everyone has a fast internet connection and big pictures load the whole page slowly. Also huge pictures can be annoying to some if they are just trying to read through posts. And it goes without saying, your signature should not violate any of the terms of this site.

    Simple, go to your gallery, click the edit link below the picture
    scroll down you'll see where you can add images,
    press upload images, select the image, it will load.
    then click save changes. Image will be in your gallery...

    Sounds like even I can do it. As soon as I get around to taking some new pics of my scooter, I'll try putting some in my Showcase.

    Okay. It's probably too much trouble so I'll just keep the one I have. Besides, it's a pretty good one. I don't think there's anyway I can change it myself. I have a Dell laptop with Windows Vista.
