Question regarding IMG code in EnWorld Signature

[Greyscott]

Probably ignorant to ask, but...

I want to include an image in my EnWorld signature, which I know I can do using the IMG codes, but the source image is really too large; thus, what is the code or sequence to resize the image within the

format? I've seen others do it (by following the links back on their image/sigs, I can see the size of the original image), but darned if I can figure out how to do it...

Any example would be appreciated -

Thx, Greyscott

Add an L before the IMG. <LIMG></LIMG>

 

[Greyscott]

If I add the "L"...

...then do I have to put in a height and width statement (such as "Height" = 50 "Width" = 100) somewhere between the IMG markers?

Sorry if these questions don't make sense...I am new to the wonders of IMG and HTML...

Thx, Greyscott

I dunno - Reveille is teaching me something new here! Never heard of that tag before!

Don't feel bad, I coded it and I forgot it was in there.

Okay, so I....

...followed the suggestion, and that allows the image to be scrolled up or down (nice effect, btw), but it doesn't actually change the size of the image (i.e, make the image as a whole smaller)...

Assume I can't make the source image smaller - how do I make it "appear" smaller in the EnWorld signature block?

Many sites might prefer you not just use thier image in that way anyway, because of bandwidth considerations. What you could do is grab the image. Make it smaller and attach it in one of your posts as an attachment. Then you can link to that attachment in your signature. Of course, their might be some ownership issues involved that I do not know. What's the image and where is it?

Here's the link to the image (below) - I grabbed it off the sig of another EnWorld poster (the user name escapes me at the moment) - as you can see, the image itself at imageshack is quite large, but the image in the EnWorld sig was considerably smaller, almost a thumbnail (maybe that's what it was - can you do those here on EnWorld?). It's not the image so much that I was interested in, as simply how the poster got it to appear smaller in his signature...

My apologies to everyone in advance - I don't want to misappropriate the picture - I'm just trying to figure out how they got it to work.

Honestly, this is one of those things that you suddenly decide to dig into when, really, the fate of the world isn't at stake if you fail to figure it out....!

Thanks for the help...

That above, when you replace the > with ] and the < with [ you get this:

Bravo, Rev! The teamwork around here can accomplish anything!
