Title: Clickable banner in signature
Post by: Belgian on November 09, 2015, 06:02:50 PM

Hello there, I was was wondering how you can add a clickable banner in your signature. And if possible also the right size to nicely fit below your posts.

Thanks for the support.

You can use nested tags, like this:

Code: [Select]

[url=http://leadadventureforum.com][img]http://leadadventureforum.com/Themes/waltz_tp/images/logo.gif[/img][/url]
Which yields:

(http://leadadventureforum.com/Themes/waltz_tp/images/logo.gif) (http://leadadventureforum.com)

So, basically, at the centre of your code line is the image address, which must be a direct address including the filename and extension as above to work as an image (i.e. no links to hosting page URLs), which is surrounded by IMG tags, which are then surrounded by the URL tags, with the destination address in the first URL tag with an added "=".

Please remember that we do not allow animated signature banners. A common, if maybe a bit dated size for web banners is 468x80 pixels. It would be considerate to keep the banner as inobtrusive as possible, as well as of a small file size to accommodate users on mobile devices or slow connections.
