Hi! I need help figuring out forum signature stuff. [RESOLVED]

I'm not sure how to add an image as the signature. I've read through the pinned thread talking about this issue, and I know I have to use the code <img src="(your image URL here)">, but still no luck. I've tried inserting a link from both imgur and flickr, but the most that showed up was an empty box outline in the source code area.

If someone knows how to fix this, I would appreciate the help :D

(The attempt example is shown below)

When I want to add images to my forum signature, i grab my IPad/tablet and search for something specific on Google. Once i find an image, I screenshot it. After screenshotting, I go to my photo app and 'copy' the image. After that, I log into HoFa on my IPad and paste the image there. Note that this only works with mobile devices and not computers!! :)

As of late, for me at least, imgur doesn't always work out but when looking at the text box ((I am on mobile so it will look differently than on pc or some other device)), up above the text box you will see Icons, like B for Bold, I for Italics etc. Scroll or look for the one icon that looks like this: <> ((It's in between Tx with a small line under it and the emoji icon)). Using this, in my experience, allows images to be saved from links/urls as its a source code. So you'd essentially still do the <img scr= option but put it all in that <> icon and save it that way.

 

 

Note also using source code on mobile helps with copying/pasting text around too.

I send myself the images I want fo use on Discord, and copy the link from there. For some reason, as Dusty said, imgur doesn't always work.
