I found my signature under my settings but how do I paste pictures into my sig? I know I need to copy a URL into a box, but I can't find the box!
Help!

When you pull up the signature page, it's the large white rectangle right under the explanation of what a signature is for. Just copy the image URL and put it inside image brackets, and post it inside that rectangle.

Gaia will count your characters; keep in mind that there is a text limit and you will receive an error if you go over it.

The image tag is as follows;

[img]IMAGE URL HERE[/img]

Photobucket will provide the URL to you with the brackets already in place.

First, you'll have to upload your image to an image-hosting site like http://www.photobucket.com or http://www.tinyurl.com . Then, choose the choice that looks like the following:

[IMG]www.pretendthere'saURLhere.com/blah.jpg[/IMG]

. Anyhow, it should have the IMG in the brackets (that's what you use for BB code, which is what you use on Gaia. Paste that in your signature, or your forum posts, and you're set^^.

Okay, thanks guys! Just one more question... how do I pull up the signature page?

To add on to what Paradoxismminant was saying, you'll have to copy and paste the URL from the image that you've uploaded to Photobucket.com into Tinyurl.com in order to shorten it. To my knowledge, there is no way to upload photos to Tinyurl.com directly.
