Can't make images links on forums

[minepagan]

(not really sure where to post this)

I seem to be having an issue making an image into a link. Now, if you'd click on either of the images in my signature you'd see that they are links, and they work. But, for some reason, I am unable to add an image to a post and then make it a link.

As a matter of fact, the "Link" button does absolutely nothing if I have an image highlighted.

Any help would be appreciated.

Log In (top right corner), then click your name and go to 'Images'

 

(Copy and Paste the BBCode link into your post for it to work!)

I'm not having problems adding images to posts: the problem is making the image a link to something.

Oh, I see.  Hm, somehow the images in my sig are links... let me see if I can dig up the code that makes em work that way.

Nvm, I figured it out based on what you said, thanks!

You have to use the BBcode, and then highlight the code and make that a link.

You just have to type it; it's the stuff like "img" in brackets. (I can't show you b/c the forums freak out)

You can do it on your own, but some websites (like imgur) make it for you.
