need help shrinking picture in signiture

Hi everyone,
I have wanted to include a picture of our TV and 06 Montana3760 in our signiture. Well, I followed the advise in the forum and was able to get the picture in the signiture. However, I think because it is too big, I doesn't show up just the address for it on Tiny pic. I tried the site recommended by the forum to shrink the picture. Unhappily, the software will not work for IMac which is what I have. I do not have software on my Mac to shrink photos. Does anyone have any suggestions for allowing my picture to always be displayed in my signiture? I am enjoying the forum so much!!!!! Thanks in advance for any help!!

I have been playing around with pictures myself, so I took a shot at reducing yours. It was huge - 1458 x 1053 pixels for 165K. I cut it down to 600 x 450 for 27K. Unfortunately, we can't e-mail attachments on this forum. So I uploaded it to tinypic.com. The significant details are:

Tag: [img]http://i1.tinypic.com/rviya1.jpg" border="0" alt="Image hosting by TinyPic]

Img: IMG]http://i1.tinypic.com/rviya1.jpg[/IMG Note: you need to add a begining [ before the text "IMG" and an ending ] after "/IMG"

Url: http://tinypic.com/view/?pic=rviya1

Link: http://i1.tinypic.com/rviya1.jpg

I assume you know how to update your profile if you find the re-sized image acceptable. Some of the others here have more experience altering photos and may have a better idea.

If you want a different take on the picture (re-size and/or crop), send me a PM and maybe we can talk directly.

Oh yea, it looks like this

Feel free to use it in your signature.

Yvonne, you don't have email selected in your profile so I couldn't email you this. But put the following in your signature. You'll have to remove the * first. they are there so the img tags will show up here.

Hi again,
Well, I have the address to my picture in my signiture, but how do I make the picture always be in my signature instead of just the address for the picture?

On the subject of shrinking pictures, CmdrDewey needs Glenn's expertise too

Do what sreigle suggested above. Place the URL between the IMG brackets.

[img*]http://i1.tinypic.com/rvww1v.jpg[/img*]
You can copy and paste the above directly into your signature box. Just remove the 2 "*" before clicking on submit.

To kwbosch..I have already reduced CmdrDewey's pic. It can be found at http://i1.tinypic.com/sdlg8h.jpg
