Moving or Animated Train.gif are banned now But the code, if you're wondering, is (press "Reply with Quote" to see the code)The link of your picture

-----You are reading my signature now, don't waste your time reading it!-----
Or probably, maybe you should waste your time reading it.
Eh, where did my signature go?
Oh, here it is, the one you are reading right now? Can't you see it? I know I know, it's probably too bright to see it.
Hey, look at my avatar, nice right? I drew it with my own hands holding the mouse in Paint, with the pencil tool(and the Filling tool!)!
It's a picture of me in Planet Stooopid, where everything is the same as what you call "Earth" except that we are called "aliens" in your planet.
Anyway, I warned you not waste time reading my signature! You have just wasted probably about 30 seconds reading it, where you could have spent the time doing better things, like maybe reading the next post below if there is one...

To add the non-animated train .gifs like I am using simply add a link to the .gif file you want to show into the signature area when you go to edit your profile and it should show up just fine.

I'm sorry, but I still don't get it (my fault, not yours, but you probably already knew that).

Read this> http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID15/350.htmlUse your picture in place of a screen shot. Don't mind the resizing. Just make your own .gif file (paint is usable) of a 6-8 car train MAX (the fewer the better). Remember, the file can only be 100KB. Check to see if it is (under 100KB) by right clicking on the image, and it should tell you the size. If you have more questions, ask. Chris

Hi railfan4ever,Have you a first name that I can call you by?Anyway, the best way you can get the hang of this is to download a trial version of smilies which are animated icons(free).The next thing you need to do is open the main smilies window and select any you like from the available categories.Now you right click-click on the smilie twice which should bring up a menu.Select the "Export smilie" and the "Save as" window appears.All you have to do here is select the location that you wish to save the smilie to (I always choose Desktop), as the file types are already written out for you.Now you go to one of Train-sim's discussion forums, and say what you have to say, and sign off.Next you type in the following http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/User_files/ now you click on the Click here to choose your file below and select Gif, and select Browse/Desktop/smilie. Once you have done that click on the upload button, and you will see a set of numbers in the attachment box below. once that has appeared exit the upload window.Select the numbers in the attachment box, so they are highlighted in blue, then right-click and select Cut.Paste right after where it says http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/User_files/And you should see this:

Just call me Toad (for complicated reasons it's my nickname).
I have the TrainGIFs uploaded at PhotoBucket.com. Do I just copy and paste the link? If so, which one, the link in the URL, Tag, or Img box?

Hi Toad,If you have already uploaded the gifs, then you should be able to simply put the Gif file (via the method outlined by me) that is already on your computer onto the end of http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/User_files/You will have to experiment but one way or the other they must go at the end...

I've already got the GIF's uploaded at another site and would prefer to use those links since I already have them.

You would have to copy the URL of your picture and paste it into your signature.
