I had a look at Microsoft Edge. On some pictures, you can get the address by choosing "copy link". But on an Amazon Book, there's no such option. I can't figure out if it's even possible, in that browser.

Getting there :)  You probably put a hard return between the bits of code, by pressing enter. See if you can delete it, and the images should move next to one another instead of under one another.

The correct code was on the .com site.

I've read three threads on creating signatures, and still no closer - the signature mill just tells me I'm making requests too quickly (I entered my name + search), the Kboards info doesn't paste over, and I followed two sets of clear steps laid out in one of the threads - do this, this, then that, then this, then this, this, that, that, this, then this, and that should be right, and nothing. I'll just assume that no one would want to click on my books - they rarely get under 20,000 in Amazon rankings, anyway, so nothing earth shattering.

PM me your KB signature. I'll change it and put it in.

I should have been reading this thread all along. I didn't know we could use our KB sig. I actually set up my sig here using the very first method you had.

This thread was a help. Though it didn't help that somehow I managed to paste the image link into my signature twice. And that happened twice.

I need help putting my two book covers side by side. Also, I have a third book which is not on Amazon but it's on D2D. Here's the link: https://draft2digital.com/book/558795  but when I click on the picture to get the url for it, it just tells me that it's my jpg file.

Thank you.

There was an embedded line feed character hidden in there. Found it by copying the code to word.

The D2D url for the cover does not include a .jpg, and didn't like the size code. Fortunately, it is the same size.

Hey, glad you like it! I hope you've grabbed one of the most recent versions, because prior to going bonkers on my current novel I spent two months straight on yWriter, improving it and fixing bugs.

In your signature, put one space character between the ending and starting url tags:

Do this even if they are on separate lines.

Thanks!  Knew it had to be something simple but the odd thing is I don't see such a space in the earlier part of the signature (which was created on a different forum using their tool) or I would have been sure to have them.

Hey guys,

I'm back after a few years(?) of things changing in my personal life, and that's not even including this bloody pandemic.

I'm trying to add a book cover to my signature/profile. I don't have a Kboards account anymore. I tried adding the cover following some of the advice on this thread but the cover ended up in duplicate and way too big.

Has anyone got any bang-up-to-date instructions on adding covers?
