Hey, welcome to A-U! I´m ForeverFrodo, but please call me Frodo or FF. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I´m 16 years old and from Germany. Where are you from?
And of course I´m also a LotR freak :-D I´d be glad to see you around at the forum!

As for the signature: You have to host your picture at a hosting service like tinypic.com or photobucket.com. Then you put the url in your sigg with [img]before%20and[/img] after it. It´s a bit complicated first, but you´ll learn it quickly.

Have a nice time here!! :bye2:

Hello Jenny! Welcome to the A-U forum! I'm Gwenneth, or just Gwen for short. ;) It's a pleasure to meet you. I see Frodo already beat me to the explanation, but if you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask! Take care!

~Gwen

Hey Jenny!! I am so glad you decided to join our forum! I am Lhunardaien, but you can call me Lhun. I am afraid I can't help you with the Photoshopstuff, and that you have to ask that to other people...they will certainly help you!!

:bye2: Lhun

Hey Jenny, welcome! I'm Suvi, Tolkien Geek Extraordinaire down in SoCal ^^

Anyways, using photobucket is a cinch. You go to www.photobucket.com, sign up, and then once you have an account you simply upload pictures from your computer ^^

Hi Jenny. Welcome to AU. I'm Shieldmaiden,but everyone calls me SM.

Just looking at your sig, it looks like you have a space between the jpg and [/img] that shouldn't be there. Take it out and the pic should work. :)

Smaller? You should resize and then upload again I suppose.

I didn't know you could edit sizes in photobucket, so I'm not sure. I've always just resized with my graphics programs.

I made my banners specificaly for this forum (700x150) so I'm not sure you can make it wider without making it taller. You could try cutting it down to size if you have any kind of graphics programs.

Just as a suggestion, in the Requests area of AU we have a lot of talented graphics makers who are available to make banners for everyone. You can go there and try reqesting for one to be made for you you. :)
