November Siggy Challenge - Thanksgiving Fails

penelope4612 · November 2016

Hi Everyone,

"Thanksgiving fails" has won as the topic of our November Siggy Challenge!

-Everyone who wants to participate - PLEASE POST YOUR PICTURES IN THE THREAD HERE, NOT JUST IN YOUR SIGGY (instructions below)! That way we can all keep track of them, and those that are on mobile can see the posts on the thread (they can't see the Siggys). If you don't post your picture here in the thread, you won't be entered in the voting at the end of the month. Also, the first person to post a pic in the thread will get the votes, in the event that we have duplicates. So check before you choose!

PLEASE GIVE A "LOVE IT" TO YOUR FAVORITE SIGGY(S); we will include the ten with the most love its at the end of the month in the voting poll.

To put a picture in your siggy (from a computer):
-First find the picture or gif you want to use. You will need the URL of the picture or gif (if it's a gif, the URL has to end in ".gif" or it won't work). If this is your first time doing this, try using google images, select a picture, then click on "view image". That should give you a page with a single picture and a URL that you can copy/paste. Copy the URL.
-Go to the top right hand side of your screen while in the Bump forms. Find the silhouette of a person's head. Click the head, then click "preferences".
-Click on Signature Settings on the left. You can edit your Siggy in the text box below.
-To add your picture or gif, click on the picture of a mountain above the text box, and paste your image URL there. Your picture or gif should show up in the text box. Click "save" at the bottom.

To post a picture in this thread:
-In the editing bar above the text box, click the picture of a page with one corner folded over. At the bottom, you will see a place to put the Image URL. Paste your URL there. The gif should show up in the text box.

Since I've already started seeing this...

@jenlynne0624 - I was totally going to nab that gif and couldn't find the original link to it! You beat me to it anyway! Great minds...

@LinziLoo09 I am not even a little surprised you'd choose that one! I was stuck between that and one of a turkey going down near George Bush's little turkey lol

@jenlynne0624 I saw that one too... of the turkey and Bush.

Since no one has gone with a turkey cake yet (is it too easy?)

Can someone walk me through re-sizing images? (Edited to include mine, because I needed to see my siggy before I could post it, heh.)

OMG @PensiveCrayon, that is vile.

So the only way I know to resize the image in your siggy is to actually copy and paste it in to the text box, instead of using the instructions above. Then you have to hit that </> sign, which turns the image into code. Find the 2 numbers (height and width) and make them smaller by equal amounts (I usually just cut the numbers in half).
