Boronia Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Marion 01 has made me a siggy but it needs to be longer and a little deeper. I had uploaded her picture (a big one and the final edited one) into Photobucket but even if I make the edited one bigger (it looses its clarity though) and save it, it will go back to the size you see in my siggy below. I did email Troy with the problem, had this answer.... Just checking that when you uploaded it (the edited version) to photobucket, you didn’t tick any option to reduce the size and when you are linking to it from photobucket, you are linking to the full sized image? I emailed back saying that I had used the edited photo and asked if I should have used the unedited/bigger sized photo, Troy answered...No the smaller one should be the correct one as long as when you upload it, photobucket doesn’t reduce it in size further. I am not sure if there is an option when you upload it to preserve the size/dimensions? Can anyone help? I can't believe it should be this hard, my brains are hurting :laugh: Edited January 27, 2012 by Boronia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know when I put mine in photobucket it was the 488 x 150 version and I didn't have to do anything. I will put it in my photobucket and see what the go is. Then I can tell you.

k9angel Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Have you got an account with flickr Boronia? maybe try it that way. I can try if you like, just PM me the pic, I will make the changes and PM you the link back to copy and paste into your signature. Also, do you have it centred? maybe that's the reason why it's coming up smaller than it should. When Marion sent me mine I uploaded it to flickr, left it as it's original size and just copied and pasted the properties to my sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion 01 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Rach, I see why Boronia is having problems, since I did mine, they have changed things, and it is very confusing. The full size I gather is the 488 x 150 pixels. Hope you can help as I am no good at this html stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boronia Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) I have emailed you k9angel as there is no way in this wide world that I can put that piccie in the PM me box...I don't know how ...I have asked if you can send me your email address so I can forward Marion's email to you Edited January 27, 2012 by Boronia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion 01 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Beat you to it Boronia, I sent k9angel the email with the pics that I sent to you. Surely between the 3 of us we can get it done. I went in and had a look at photobucket and it is done differently now, and I find it very confusing too, but that's not unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9angel Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Done. :) PM'd you the link to paste to your signature Boronia. Hope it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boronia Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Hi K9angel, I have replied to your message, this is what I wrote: I can copy the photo but it won't allow me to paste. I also tried to do it in the 'Testing Forum' but I can't paste in there either. The Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, words on the mouse right click are greyed out. If it is a line of text I have copied I can paste that, but not the image or even the image from Marion's email that I have saved to desktop or the image I have inserted in an 'Office' document.

Boronia Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 I have just copied the stuff written in the bar (URL bar?)..(I was copying the image before) into the Testing Forum and the photo is larger...I'll try to put it in my siggy now.
