3. Click on the icon that looks like a picture frame.

but I want a picture there for people to click with the link embedded in it or something..
Also, to the first part of my thread, how do i post pictures in threads without the link, just the pic?

to post a pic from another webpage and not your pc - go through the icons directly above where you are typing and you will find the icon that is 'insert image'. do this after you have placed the cursor where you want the image, if it's between sentences, etc.

once you click on that icon, click on 'from url' and uncheck the 'retrieve remote file and reference locally'. then paste the url into the field and voila!

if you want to use pics from your pc, it will create a link only. the only way around this that i know of, is to post/submit your comment with image attached and then click on that link, followed by copying the url that link provides, then click back and edit your post with going back through what i just mentioned above. you will still have to keep the link for the image to appear though, from what i can recall

i have no idea how to make a sigpic double into a link

Do this as VAI said:

''to post a pic from another webpage and not your pc - go through the icons directly above where you are typing and you will find the icon that is 'insert image'. do this after you have placed the cursor where you want the image, if it's between sentences, etc.

once you click on that icon, click on 'from url' and uncheck the 'retrieve remote file and reference locally'. then paste the url into the field and voila! ''

AND then to link to Twitter via the image, highlight that entire image URL and click the globe icon one across to the right of the smilies icon and then insert the destination link to which you want the user to be sent to if they click on the picture in your signature.

Like this: (I've just linked back to this thread via a random image, but this is what it will look like)
