Nice John. I use paint and do the attach file myself. Usually shrinking the photo size in paint to around 70 x 70 does the trick, and saving as a .jpeg makes the file size very small

using MS Paint on a PC or Preview on a Mac is an easy way to resize a pic.

Brad - I don't think the "/youtube" is required in that command, just the closing bracket...

Untill you posted it I had no idea how to do that one here myself. However if you want a video on it now that I know I guess I could make a video on it. :biggrin:

So how are you guys getting icons into your signature? I tried HTML tags in my signature line but they don't work.

I upload pictures from my phone however it's an android system but I would be willing to say the possess is close. After I take the picture I have to use an image resize app because the image is to large to post if I dont. Once I resize it I can post it via the Attach file after posting and it will upload.

Here's the code to get it in your signature, obviously you'll have to replace the url and remove the quotes "

"["img=http://website.com/xxx.jpg"]"
