What's a Siggy?
A siggy (or signature) is the default message that is attached to all of your board posts on The Knot. They are customizable and a great way to let others know more about yourself by adding tickers, badges and pictures. The siggy challenge is set by the board - often voted on previously by board members. The challenge is a different themed image that can be placed in your signature each month. Here is a list of previous siggy challenges for the June 2012 board:

How to put a picture into your signature:
1. You need to have your pictures somewhere on the net. You cannot just paste a pic off of your computer. You can use Snapfish, Shutterfly, etc.
2. Go to the site where you have your pictures and find the picture that you would like to add into your signature. Make sure you are not looking at a small preview picture or your picture will be tiny!
3. Place your cursor over the picture and right click.
4. A gray box will pop up on your screen. Choose properties.
5. The address will appear in the middle of the new box.
6. Highlight and copy the entire address.
7. Now take what you just copied and go to tinyurl.com.
8. You will notice an empty box on this website where you will paste the address you copied to make it a tiny url.

IF YOUR PICTURE IS TOO BIG OR SMALL, ADJUST THE SIZING:
Here's an example:
<img src="TINYURLCODE" mce_src="TINYURLCODE" width="250" height="167*">
TAKE OUT THE ASTERISK (*) before you paste them in your profile. You can play with the numbers 250 and 167 to adjust the width and height. Please do not have the "250" be over "300" or you may have some cranky knotties due to the size.
