Feareh's TutorialHello guys, and welcome to this small tutorial on how to properly put up a icon and or signature here on Feral Heart.Now please fallow these step by step if you have no idea how to put a icon/signature and well get you set up.NOTE: This tutorial was specially made just for Feral Heart. You can try this same result as well for other forums if you wantAvatarEver had a icon that was about 200x200 and it looks crisp clear when viewed on Window photo preview, then when you upload it on here it looks blurred or pixelated? Well I have the solution for you. First, Do you know the difference in computer resolution?The right and left pictures were preformed in different ways when uploading in on here. One from a Direct upload from my computer and the other a Directlink from Photobucket. Which one do you like best? Lets move on... First you would make your picture in photoshop and or find a good resolution picture on the internet. Once you have that try to crop it to at least 200x200(sometimes 150x150 is a better option). When you do that a good place to upload your picture would be on photobucket or any related site such as itSince I like to use Photobucket a lot this tutorial will be based on it. If you so happen to know of another file sharing shite such as this please use it First off upload your pictureNext when you are finishing uploading your picture then click it and there is displayed options on the right hand side. Since we are doing just Avatars you will be needing this link or similar Direct coding with a website link in it.From there go into your profile page and on the left hand side there should be account tabs just for you..click on the one that says Forum Profile Information.From there, you should see options for your avatar as well as some for your signature. The one you will be using will be the link where it requires a direct link. Get your coding from the website and place it here. After that you have uploaded a successful avatar.Now using the "Upload from my computer" function works just as fine too, but why do you want to use a direct link coding instead of this.Reason to use Direct instead of a Computer download1) The resolution on the image is 2x more better and more crisp2) Using the Direct link method allows you not only upload jpgs, but also gifs as well. So you cant upload a gif onto the other setting cause it will not work.With that saying, this ends the tutorial on Avatars
