Ok, no one took it over since leggwilliams ended her run, so I'm just gonna jump on the bandwagon.
December Siggy challenge for Minneapolis-St. Paul:
Something you've DIY'd!
If you don't know how to add a siggy, here's some helpful instructions.
How to Add A Siggy:
Upload the photo you want to use to a site like Photobucket.
Once your photo has uploaded, you can scroll over it and four options appear. You're interested in the one that says "Direct Link." Click on the box to the right of the title "Direct Link," and the link will be automatically copied for you.
Next, go back to the message boards on The Knot. On the left, you'll see the list of "Wedding Boards" with the boards below it, ie: "wedding boards, special topic wedding boards, local wedding boards, etc." Below all that, is a section called "Community Links." Click on the one called "Update Signature."
On the page that comes up, there will be a box that says "My Forum Signature," and if this is your first siggy it's likely that it's blank. Put the following code into the box: <*img src="urlhere" width=200*> Make sure you remove the asterisks AND replace the part in quotations with the URL you copied from your picture on Photobucket.
Click "Save my Signature," and voila! You have a siggy!
Please note: You won't be able to see your siggy on the Update Signature page, since it only shows coding. You'll have to make a new post or check out one of your old posts to see it.
Helpful info:
-To make spaces between items in your siggy use the code <*br* /> (remove the asterisks!). You'll need to use this code twice <*br* /><*br* /> to have a white space between items in your siggy.
-ALSO you can play with the width in the code above (<*img src="urlhere" width=200* />) to make your picture larger/smaller. Change the number 200 to anything else- 150, 300, 223- whatever you want and it will change the size of your picture. Play around with it until you're happy with the size.
So In Love
