Adding Signature - Easy Instructions
New members and some older members - please add a signature to your posts that will tell what kind of rig you have. It is useful for other members who are answering your questions, and it just plain helps us all visualize what we are reading about.
Here are some very easy step-by-step illustrated instructions for creating a signature that will appear on all of your messages.



Our signature has our photo website (Picasa), our name, a brief description of our rig, and a countdown for an upcoming trip.
Other items that could be included might be a states visited map, a small photo of your rig, a small photo of your family and/or pets.
Almost anything goes, within reason, and try to keep it small enough to read without having to scroll.
Thanks to all who have or will soon have signatures.
P.S. If you would like to add a countdown, here are some websites:
This is the site for the little Disney name badge countdown. There are two choices for both Disneyland and Disney World. There are also two sizes - the one I like to use is small. Instructions are pretty easy to use.
http://www.mickeypath.com/
Follow the instructions. You don't have to register.
http://www.magicalkingdoms.com/timers/
This site has some Disney and some other more generic countdowns for vacations, etc. Below the sample ticker, will be some categories of other tickers.- including Weight Loss, Debt Reduction, Ovulation, Vacations, Events, etc.

Adding a photo to your signature:
Scottz posted excellent step-by-step instructions for managing photos (including how to add a photo to a signature). His instructions can be found in the very bottom forum on the main page. I've noticed that in some signatures sometimes the photo is very big, and sometimes very small. It might take a little experimenting with the size of the photo to get it "just right." Scott or someone else might have some suggestions regarding this.

Re: Adding Signature - Easy Instructions
There may have been a change to the way we add a signature. Simpler, in my opinion.
Go to profile and click on signature as in the first message above. It might be just a regular message page, just like the ones we use to write a new post. On that page, type in your signature (use bold or underline or italics if you wish), add a SMALL photo or states visited map if you'd like, and click preview below the text box. If you like it, click save, if not, go to the text box below the preview and try again.
To add a photo, go to the Wildcat Forum (at the bottom of the main page), select How to Add Pictures and States Visited Maps. At the top of the page in Announcements and Sticky section select Announcement: Pictorial instructions for posting photos - using servimg.com .

P.S. I've locked this topic so it doesn't get too cluttered.
