Signature Question

I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask this. If not please move it.

I see a lot of DUers with pictures as their signatures. I’d like to do that but don’t know how. I wanted to do a string of five or six small pictures. Can anyone tell me how?

Thanks!

and scroll down to "Signature Line" and click on "Edit." You should be able to insert your pictures there.

Scroll down to the signature line part and click on the edit or whatever it says to open the little text window, enter text.

So if you want to put an image there you need to copy the image link for the image and paste it in there. You can only get so many in there, I think, because of character limits for the window. when you're done, hit update. If you don't like it, go back and fix it.

Already online. It doesn't work if you try to paste in a picture from your pc or whatever, has to be a jpeg, png, gif or the like to work, they resize automatically. As with mine, they are just images posted on DU and I copied the image link and pasted in the pics.

Go to a hosting site like https://postimages.org/ or https://imgur.com/upload to assign a link to each picture then you can import them to your sig line.
