NN asked how to put colored (coloured) text in sig. Type this (without the space in the last tag): and put your text that you want to be colored between the tags so you end up with Bloody Spike's Dirty Girl ##You can change what I have "red" to another color. I'm adding the color choices in this post too so you can see what they look like on this color background: black red yellow pink green orange purpleblue beige brown teal navy maroon limegreen

Here are the colors that are usually in the "drop down" box when you make a post (you know, the box that says "Colors" with the arrow that you click to change text color). In order to change the color of text in your sig, follow the instructions in my previous post, and you can insert one of these colors: black red yellow pink green orange purpleblue beige brown teal navy maroon limegreenYou can also use many other standard colors. Or if you know the hex code, you can use that and have tons of colors, but we won't go there! I've modified my previous post to have the colors in it as well, so you can see what they look like on the other color background, as obviously some colors are very difficult to see here!

First, be sure you are logged into your group. Then you can click on your pictures link and by each album there is a link that says "Add Pictures" to click on. It will display a "tree" structure of your computer, usually defaulting on My Documents or My Pictures. Find your pic, check it's box, and click "Upload".

Lol, dinosaur.. nah! Okay NN, I'm not Cy but I am intimate with MSN groups! It is easier to be organised about it coz then you'll find the pic you want quicker.
Click on Pictures in the left hand menu. Choose Create an album. Then it'll ask you for its settings (name of it etc). After that, click on Add photos and you'll get a list of stuff on your hard drive come up to choose from. Now it depends where your pics are. Select whatever/wherever that is and check the box of the ones(s) you want to upload. Then go to Upload now near the top. And it'll start to happen.
ETA - well, two lots of advice for the price of one! ;D

lol... I did mine from memory... verifying it right now to be sure it's not confusing... Okay, yeah, it's right... except it says "Add Photos" (instead of "Add Pictures") and "Upload Now" (instead of "Upload"), but other than those minor word things, it should work for you! PK, I thought you'd gone to bed...

;D thanx ladies...but I haven't really got any pics stored any where yet...I presume i scan my pics and send them to the group? Or is there some outrageously difficult way to do it? Just asking cos I want to put the DB photos in as soon as i get them developed!

Yeah, you can scan them and then upload them to the group, BUT beware that MSN compresses them, and therefore reduces the size and quality of them. For photos like that, I'd recommend Angelfire. You have more control over it, and pics stay the original size/quality.

oh hey cool Angelfire is not a group, but is web hosting. www.angelfire.com and click on Sign Up at the top... it kinda walks you through from there...

Yeah, but originally sized pics are a colossal pain in the ass if you going posting them at boards! Gotta hate a fat page!

True, but if you're just providing a link to the pics, then its okay.

It's in your profile... the heading "Personalized Picture" choose from the list... or if you have one online, you can type in the URL in the box underneath the list of provided avatars.
