Go to your profile page and on the left is the control panel. Go down that list until you see edit signature. Copy and paste your link in the box. Than save it.

Mary--just but the link in there and it should work--the link itself should change to the name but there is a character limitation to the sig line so you have to watch that. Have you tried just copy and pasting the link yet?---Sun

I haven't tried anything yet, I just saw how long that link was and wondered how to get it small. I will go try it now. Thanks Guys.

Hi Mary,

Once you have the entire URL code, you can edit what it displays as the tag. Use the link button above (globe with chain-link icon). Just alter what is typed between the brackets containing the actual link, and the end /URL bracket.

So instead of it appearing as:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/womens-room/

It looks like:
ECF Womens Room

You can also add an image code in between, to make the image an active link.

Hope that made sense

Cheers!

Well I took the long way around! First I decided to try copy instead of copy shortcut..that sorta worked.
Then I went to the social goup list and just copied the words Women's room and Wreaked and Bonkers..and pasted them to the sig edit box. That worked..sorta!
I had to take out a lot of other stuff like 901 and nicostick because even though it's short words the computer reads that whole line of words and letters like before.
Any way with fiddling around..I did and thanks everyone.
There is a 300 character limit in 3 lines!
Cekte..your way would have been a lot shorter!

I also wanted to add Flordia Vapers Club..but that was just to much for my sig line to put up with!
