*For the how-to on About forums, click here. The ability to use signatures and HTML
is available for Delphi Plus and Advanced subscribers. For more information
on the features of each membership level, click here. To include an image into your signature, go tohttp://forums.delphiforums.com/my-forums and click on My Preferences to the left. Scroll down to "Personal Signature" area
and type: Put in the address where your image is stored, and replace the xxx's with the width & height of the image in pixels (IE users right-click on the image and choose "Properties", or View Image in Netscape and the H&W will show in the top bar). Put a check in the box underneath that
says "Contains HTML" (if you have the WYSIWYG interface - Delphi Plus using
Windows & IE - check "Source" before you paste or type in the
box), then scroll to the bottom and click on "Submit". You may have
to log out and close your browser, then log back on to see the changes.
If you want to link your website to your signature image, use this code (insert your url, and image name as above): <A HREF="http://yourwebsiteaddress.com/" target="_blank"><IMG SRC="http://yourwebsiteaddress.com/image.jpg" WIDTH="xxx" HEIGHT="xxx" BORDER=0></A> The BORDER=0 means there won't be a solid
line around your image. The width & height tags are important, as
they will keep the discussion from bogging down while loading. If your
server is slow to respond it will hang things up until it times out.
By having the W&H specified, it will throw in a placeholder and keep
loading the rest of the discussion. For a text link, use this code <a
href="http://yourwebsite.com">My Website</a> For those who would like to know more
about using HTML on Delphi, here's a great forum for tips and help: Using
HTML on DelphiForums.com For About.com forums: If you need to change your email address or other info, go to this page: http://membership.about.com/and click on "edit My Information".
