    Hi good people of forgehub, I have a few questions about sigs and stuff.

    My first question is what equiptment and programs does it take to make a sig? I allready have a capture card and I use pinnicle studios if that helps.

    My second question is how do you make a picture link? This is where you have a picture of your map in your signature and you are able to click the pic as a link and have it take you to another page.

    Thank you to whoever answers my questions :)

    GIMP is good for the beginner. Gimp.org. Its free, and has almost the same functionality as PS. To get a link in a sig, do thus:

    Definitely the wrong forum for these questions, but it appears as though they have been answered. Capture cards aren't necessary for signatures, as you can use Bungie's screenshot viewer to grab Halo images for yourself on your PC (or Mac? o_O) without any help from your hardware. All you need to make a signature is Photoshop or Gimp (other pathetic immitations aren't worth the effort - if you can't afford Photoshop, go with either Elements (c. $100) or with Gimp (c. free)).

    If you don't know how to make an image a link by now (after Insane's very clear demonstration) I'd say you need to open your eyes.

    I personally think photoshop is more user friendly. But then again, it isn't free.
