Updated Member Profile Info: Re: Adding Your Team To Your Signature

If you would like to access your Member Profile
Go to the Main Menu Bar in the Forums and click on My Forum Profile

#1 You can now Change your Profile and Add your email address to your signature, as well as Add Cool Links and ID's

#2 You can now Change your Signature
By adding a Team Link pointing to where to go to Join Your Team
Example: Here is the URL for IBM Corporation Team Page:
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=0FCFF7R9N
As you can see it is quite long and eats up a good portion of the 250
characters that you are allowed to create a customised Signature

Here is the solution: Go to: http://www.tinyurl.com
Copy the URL into the box and click on Make Tiny URL!
Here is the result: http://tinyurl.com/hgnpf
You can remove the http:// leaving tinyurl.com/hgnpf
Now add the following at the beginning {url=
Then add ]Your Team Name[/url] at the end
So your URL looks like this: {url=tinyurl.com/hgnpf]Join IBM Corporation[/url]
You are adding {url=TinyUrl Here ]Your Team Name Here[/url]
Here is the result: Join IBM Corporation
Note that I have substituted the first { for [ for this illustration
This is not easy to explain so I hope it makes sense

#2a To add an image to your Signature:

{img]gahood.org/sample.jpg[/img]
Again, I have substituted { for [ for this illustration
As before you do not need the proceeding http://
This helps to conserve characters for other items

#3 You can now Change your Posts Per Page
This is set to 10 posts per page by default
If you change it to 50 it will save you lots
of time when scrolling through long threads

#4 You can also access and manage My Watch
You can also access and manage My Favourite Threads
By adding threads here, that you would like to refer back to without searching for them
