How do I add a photo to my homepage?

[freebird5850]

I just found out if you hover over someones handle, it shows when they joined FR. If you click on that it takes you to their homepage. One I just saw had a photo. how do I do that? Feeling kinda spiffy here as earlier I created my first URL link in a post.

Open a www.photobucket.com account. Put your photo there. PhotoBucket then provides you with the HTML needed to put it here.

I know exactly how you feel.
I've been here since 1998, signed up in 1999 and still don't know lots of things about FR.
And just to keep it exciting, Jim and John keep changing stuff every couple of years so I just gave up.

For example, once upon a time there was a way to check how many posts a particular FR member has made in his current "lifetime" (people are banned and return with a different name all the time.)

So, Jim or John, is there currently a way to check a member's total number of individual posts since his "join date?"

Are you talking about a photo on your computer or one from a webpage?

[thackney]

You need to post your question to them, if you hope to get an answer.

Thanks for replies. I have a photobucket account and use it for other forums so I am going to try using "" stuff I found in the sandbox.

“img src” html stuff.

Looks like it worked, give me a click and let me know what you see ok?

First you need a light writer. That's a camera for you folks in Rio Linda. ;)

Find a photo sharing site you like, up load whatever graphic images you like, then use < IMG SRC="http://www.photo_site.com/your_directory/your_photo.jpg"> in your text where you want a picture.
