Hey Lisabsn,
Find a banner you like on someone's post and click on it. It should take you to the site where you can create your own. I was able to do that with only one problem - it won't track how much $ I've saved by vaping! I'm not sure why that is happening. There's no way the banner can know I spend way too much $$ on juices=)

To be a little more complete in my explanation. . .
After you generate the banner you like, it should come up as letters/numbers (code). Copy this. Then on the ECF site, click on your name where you are logged in. Then click on "settings". Go to "edit signature" and copy the code in the box. I just re-did this so I could answer your question more completely, and also to see if it would fix my own signature.

First, check out little girl's 2-page blog in which she displays a pretty large collections of banners.

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/little-girl/784-signature-banners-part-1.html
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/blogs/little-girl/785-signature-banners-part-2.html

Click on one you like, and a page will open in which you enter the pertinent info (date you quit smoking, number of cigarettes per day you were smoking, etc.) The page will generate codes for you, Then follow these instructions:

•You can paste the code that gets generated for you into the edit box as if you were writing a message. Note that you need to make sure to use BB code and not HTML code. Some banner sites also generate HTML code, and that won't work in the forums.
•You can copy just the URL from the code that gets generated and paste that into the Option 1 box. Note that this won't work for some banners

I found personally that the second option didn't work, but the first did.

In any event, if you get a chance, drop little girl a line to thank her, if you get a chance. I copied & pasted all the above instructions from a message she sent me.

I totally new so I might be missing something obvious, but I cant find anything that says "edit signature". Can anyone help?

You have to do so many posts before that will all open up for you, I think it is 5 posts, so one more post and you should have the availability to it....use the threads politicallyincorrect posted, which are AWESOME

I think you need either 15 or 20 posts, I can't remember which, before you can post a banner.

Just keep posting and looking for the "edit signature" and it'll eventually show up...

You need 15 posts/reply threads, then you will see "edit signature" we will help you right now.

How are you big chiefer?


Hey thanks for the help!!! :laugh: It's kind of an inside joke. I've been a closet smoker around the family and every time I'd sneak out for a "smoke" my brother, who knew where I was going, would ask how was the "Chief"?
