Award buttons in signatures?

Sorry if this is somewhere else but I couldn't spot it.  Is it just the winners who get to display the Sock A Month gold/silver/bronze award buttons?  Or everyone who entered in the final draws?   Confused  

I had assumed it was just the winners but I've seen a few in peoples' sigs now and I'm confused scratch  Answers on a sock-shaped postcard please .....?

It's everyone who was entered into the final draws if I understand correctly.

yep it is as melody yarns says any one who qualified in each section can wear the badge with pride

we are all winners after all Wink

oh brilliant, thanks!   Very Happy

So, next dumb question - are the buttons somewhere specific or can I just copy one out of someone else's signature? How did you guys get yours?

I can't remember and I only did it over the weekend!!  Embarassed

Hover your mouse over the button and right click. Save as a picture onto your machine and then save onto your photo hosting site (such as photobucket). Then copy the IMG code from your picture hosting site into your signature. Voila!

So glad u asked this one fatcat cos i was puzzling about if/how to do it & like youself i thought it was only the winners who got them  Laughing

There are 2 colours floating around because I had an accident with the first gold award lol. I wanted add my others buttons,deleted the pale one...had to make another, it wasn't the same but then realised that others had saved it...anyway I digress Wink

So if you copy these and then upload them (I use imageshack, photobucket works too) they should move. sometimes certain uploaders only upload the first frame, hence it becoming static. HTH

By the wave of my administrators magic wand, you have a twirling golden button rosie.

Enjoy!

I don't mean to hijack this thread but am intrigued as to how some of you have the buttons stacked ontop of one another and others side by side, is there a trick to getting them side by side???
Rosie

Oh thanks so much melody Smile

I am so proud of that button Very Happy

After you've added one image to your signature, just add the next straight after it without putting in a hard return ie pressing the return button

I've combined my buttons into one picture (saves on text space in your profile...so if you try and one of my butons, you'll get all 3 Very Happy)

If anyone wants several buttons combining...just let me know which ones, PM me etc Very Happy
FatCat

Yay, I have the button now - belated thanks from me for the replies and help  Very Happy
