Just puttin this out there. Here are some things you need to know about making your signature, the thing below all of your posts, neat.
First. If you want a link like this Click Here where you click on a line of text and it takes you somewhere, this is how you do it.
Code:
[url=link]title[/url]

Where I said "link" you write the web address, for example: http://www.ldwforums.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/cfrm
is the web address of my example link. Where I wrote "title" is where you write what you want the text the link says, for example mine was, "click here."
So, the link I just did would be written like this:
Code:
[url=http://www.ldwforums.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/cfrm]Click Here[/url]

Another thing. The LDW forum only allows 300 characters, (a character is anything that u type, even a space) so making links can be hard, for they are often many characters. A good help is TinyURL which is a website where you type in a web address, and it will create a web address to the same place, with fewer characters.

Images:
First, try to only put smallish images in your signature. The way to do it is:
[img]web address of the image[/img]
let's use the image in my sig as an example.

the web address of the image is http://www.ldwforums.com/attach/2494-mm.jpg
therefore, I type in
Code:
[img]http://www.ldwforums.com/attach/2494-mm.jpg[/img]

Any questions?
Need help? Post it here.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT THING
In both sigs and posting. If you attach a file with file manager, it's nice to also post it in the post. The way to do that is as follows:
After you're done adding files, copy the attachment name. This would be something like ####-ABC.png
where I wrote "ABC.png" you would write the filename. it could be something like

MyPicture.jpg

where I wrote #### you write the attachment number. That will be specified in file manager. probably 2### or something like that. Then, you add this at the beginning.

Code:
[img]http://ldwforums.com/attach/

After /attach/ you write the number-the filename. For example:

Code:
[img]http://ldwforums.com/attach/2345-MyPic.png[/img]

My example. This is a pic from my fan art story.


This is the code for it:
Code:
[img]http://ldwforums.com/attach/2836-Picture3.png[/img]

Tell me if y'all understand.
