GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

I wanted to put a pic in my profile, and on my signature, can someone help me i can't find where to upload it.

you have to have a place to HOST the picture and then put [img][/img] tags on it.

Welcome to the Encyclopedia of Vibe!I think your the 'pic in profile' question is regarding what is called the 'avatar' on Genvibe. It's the 70 x 70 pixel image that shows up below your username. Choose My Profile, and then My Avatar, and you can choose from many Pontiac and Vibe-specific images already available on Genvibe, or upload your own.Trdvibe is right (of course!) about finding a host for your 'signature' pic which appears directly below posted messages.

does anyone know if the new upgrade allows us to hotlink images again?oh yes, and welcome!

yes you have to have the image hosted as TRD says..anyhow WELCOME...What is your MOS?

used to be that you had to upload the image to some other web site, but genvibe had an upgrade last month that changed some things, so to put a pic in your signature:1. reply to this (or edit your first post in this thread, or any other thread actually) and use the file attachment to upload your image file to genvibe. 2. If you click on the link to the image, you can copy the URL to the uploaded image from the address bar in your browser, 3. then edit your Signature , and paste the URL to the image between [IMG] and [/IMG] and save, then your uploaded image should display in your signature

BTW TRDVIBE how much did you seats cost you,they look awesome and I've been thinking about doing some of that sort of stuff to my car

ooooohhhh the ROCK i think i paid just under $700 including shipping. I installed them myself to save another $300-500. not hard, just very very time consuming!

it's pretty cool if you upload a pic in a thread and use it in your signature, then you can see how many times your sig has been viewed. (if you ignore caching )Edit - On November 8, 2004 I uploaded a pic and included it in my signature. Also, on 11/16, I added a counter to the signature.Today (12/6/2004) the pic in the signature has been downloaded 4815 times, but the counter, which started at 1, is now up over 10,000. I think the difference is that the counter, being a cgi program, is updated every time someone loads a page with my counter in it, while the uploaded static picture is cached, and not downloaded every time someone loads a page with it on it. Hitting refresh on the page would bump the counter, but not the image download count.

yup he's one of quite a few famous people i've met. trdvibe how much did your seats cost you to get done like that?

the interior kit cost just under $700. i installed them myself to save another $300-500. still need to do the doors since i don't know how to do them. may have them done professionally.

My current MOS in the army is 11B1P which means i'm a lower enlisted paratrooper infantryman, hower in Jan. i'm going to Special Forces selection and hope to become a 18D Weapons Seargent

I wanted to upload a new picture and not have the cardomain logo on it, so I'm placing it here.
