I couldn't see this option in my Profile options.

Go to "User CP:Edit Options" and scroll down to the bottom right-hand corner. You'll see something like this, except without an avatar:

Avatars have been banned now

[Bob]

We are in the process of reintroducing them.

[sporK9]

y were they banned?

[jpod999]

i would rather have sigs than avatars.

I've noticed that others have a custom title set under their names. How does one go about doing that? Is there a post minimum, do I have to give someone money, kill somebody? How is it done?

EDIT: Nevermind...

how do you post a link to a url based within an image, but without a border? for example, i want to have my sig link to a site, but i would like to turn off the orange border around it. how do i do it?

[Bob]

The orange border only appears with certain browsers. It isn't visible with Safari on my iBook but is with Camino.

[stinkiedmb]

it doesn't seem that way on my system.

i am running firefox 1.0, and i see sigs that are linked to pages both with and without the orange border.

?????

[stinkiedmb]

an example of a linked sig without a border would be Calculus's

stinkiedmb:

You have this code:
{url=http://www.pitt.edu/~jas2377/ipod.html}{IMG=http://www.pitt.edu/~jas2377/images/sig.png}

Calculus has this code:
{Url=http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/Calculus/}{img}http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/894...ulusborder.JPG{/img}{/url}

(I changed all the "[" and "]" to "{" and "}" for display purposes)

Looks like the main difference is in your IMG tag. Change yours to look like Calc's and that should remove the border.

1, I have used the search function on my own name, requesting results by post to get to or create a link to a specific post within a thread. Is this the easiest way to identify a specific post for referral?

2. In my signature below, the last link is to a specific post, not to a thread as are all the others. When I click on the link in my signature it takes me to the beginning of the thread, not to the specific post. When I use that link in my favorites, it takes me to the specific post.

How do I get the link in my sig to go to the specific post, which is

I have double checked that the properties of my favorite's link and the link below are identical.

Edit, hmmm, just tried it again, and one out of three times it went to the specific post. A sporadic problem? and, still would like an easier way of identifying exact address of a specific post to link to

If you hover your cursor over the "Quote" button it should show you the ID of the thread - for this post it is 395934.
If you use the following replacing the "12345#post12345" with "395934#post395934" it will direct you to your post.
