March 2013 Weddings

February Siggy Challenge!

I decided I would just pick something this time. For future months, I'll probably pick a few ideas and have everyone vote (if you ladies don't mind me taking charge Smile). So this month's theme is your engagement ring! Let's see those sparkles!

What is a siggy challenge?
It's not really a "challenge" in the sense that someone wins, it's just a term really. Each month we choose a theme and put that photo in our signatures (the thing that shows at the end of your posts, like the tickers). You don't have to participate if you don't want to, but it's fun!

How do I post a photo in my siggy? (answer taken from Chit Chat board)
Upload a photo to photobucket.com or tinypic.com.  You do not need to create an account to use tinypic.com.  Copy the url for “Direct Link” (it should end in .jpg or .png).  Paste it between the quotation marks in the following and delete the space:  <img src="pictureurl.jpg" mce_src="pictureurl.jpg" width="200px" />

 Copy and paste that formula into the signature box.  You can adjust the size of your sig by changing the number, but 200 is generally a good size. 
Have fun!

  • Lol good point!  I like the stock photo, it shows off the detail, but I'd much rather have it on my finger!!  How'd you add the words to your pic?
    Wedding Countdown Ticker
  • I just edited it in Photoshop. If you don't have PS you could try picnik.com (which is closing in April but it's still open for now!) to edit it. Our you can just type the words into your siggy above or below the photo. Whatever you prefer!

  • Good first challenge pick! The only signature I've used so far on here is my engagement ring anyways. I love it so much, it is my dream ring. I've had it on my finger for almost 6 months and still can't stop looking at it all the time. It's a .44 carat center stone with 10 rubies, 2 pear shaped emeralds, and 4 graduating diamonds on each side. And my band will help it sparkle even more with 14 graduating diamonds. My fiance's aunt was super sweet and gave us all the diamonds for my ring and band.

    My fiance totally shocked me and had my favorite cakery make a cake that looked like my ring for him to propose with. I am hard to surprise, but he blew me away!
