1) First of all, right click on the moving button you want to snag - for the 24 in 2009 this will be the sparkly button in Linz's signature found at the bottom of her posts.

2) Then choose Save Picture As and save it onto your hard drive

3) Then import this picture into a picture hosting site such as Photobucket or Flickr

4) Retrieve the IMG code from your photo hosting service by copying it - the method of doing this will differ depending on your photo hosting site

5) Come back to the forum and choose Profile from the top of the forum. You'll see some blue clickable links under the title of the main forum board. Just click the one that says Profile.

6) Scroll down to the Signature part of your profile and copy the IMG code that you copied from your photo hosting site into your signature

7) Hey presto - you now have a sparkly or moving button but you'll only see it when you return to the main forum again!!

Thank you Debs.

I thought I'd done that, but obviously I missed out a really vital part of the process somewhere along the line Laughing

Thank you for sorting me out btw Very Happy
