Adding Bouncy Mickey's to your signature

Here are step by step instructions to put a graphic (like the bouncing mickey's) in your signature. These instructions are for Windows users.

1. Right mouse click on the item you want to add to your photo, like a jumping Mickey.
2. Select "copy image location"
3. Go to My Home and select Edit Signature
4. Go to the editing box and place the cursor where you want the item to go.
5. At the top of the editing box, just above the editing window, you will find a small icon with a yellow mountain on it. Click on this and it will bring up a pop-up window to paste the address into. (If you don't have this box, see below)
6. (Right mouse click in the box and select)"Paste" to put the address from Step 3. CHECK THE ADDRESS TO MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT HAVE HTTP:// IN THE ADDRESS TWICE. If you do, delete one of them! Click OK.
7. Select save changes and your signature should have the item in it.

Problems.....

1. I don't have the little icon with the mountain in it above my editing box.

Go to My Home and select Edit Options.
Scroll down until you get to the window that says Miscellaneous Options
Look in the window that says Message Editor Interface
The choices are Basic Editor, Standard Editor, or Enhanced Interface. I suggest you select Enhanced Interface, but you need to select either Standard or Enhanced. The difference between these two is that in Enhanced, you see the photo/graphic when you place it, with standard you just see the coding.
Scroll to the bottom and select Save Changes

Go back and edit your signature again and you should have the little box with a yellow mountain...

2. I still can't get it to work, what should I do???

You can always manually enter it.

Follow steps 1 through 4 above.
For step 5, manually type in the coding for the graphic like this...

In the case of the bouncing Halloween Mickey
