      Add a link to my posts?

      There are three ways to do this. One is to directly copy it using "Copy Shortcut" and then paste it in your post. Another is to click the "Insert Link" icon (blue globe with link icon). A box will come up for you to copy the link into. Yet another is by using vBulletin Code.

      http://k9diabetes.com/forum/misc.php?do=bbcode

      List of codes link

      url and/url in square brackets are the tags for this. Start with url in square brackets, copy your link, then "end" it with /url in square brackets.


      Add a picture to my posts?

      Again, there's more than one way to do it. One way is to click the "Insert Image" icon (photo-like icon). A box will come up for you to copy the photo link into. And you can also do this with vBulletin Code.

      img and /img in square brackets are the tags for pictures. Start with img in square brackets, copy the link of your photo, and end it with /img in square brackets.

      If you want the picture to be in the center of your post, then you'll need to use the center tags.

      center and /center, both in square brackets, are the centering tags. You'll need to arrange them like this:

      center img Photo Link /img /center

        Yup.

        You can subscribe to all threads in any of the forums here, so that you get an e-mail notice when there's a new message (reply) in that forum, or you can subscribe to any individual thread/topic, so that you get an e-mail notice when there's a new message (reply) in that topic.

        At the top of any forum, you'll see "forum tools". If you click on that, one of the options that you can choose is to subscribe to all threads in that forum. At the top of any thread/topic, you'll see "thread tools". If you click on that, one of the options that you can choose is to subscribe to that thread.

        In your user CP, you also have a "subscriptions folder" that you can access if you click on "List subscriptions". From there, you can see all the threads to which you have subscribed, and you can also unsubscribe from any of your subscribed threads, if you no longer want to get those notification e-mails.

        You can also set your options in your user CP so that you are notified via e-mail whenever there is a new Private Message in your message board inbox. Just click on "edit options" in your user CP, and then make sure there is a tick in the little box next to "Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages". Then scroll down and click "save changes".

        You can turn that option on and off, as you wish.
