Where is everyone getting these fancy buttons?!

I joined MFC in August and I was very pleased with my profile and how I decorated. That was until I saw OTHER profiles! I have a twitter and an amazon wishlist, but how do I get the fancy buttons that link to them on my profile?

step 1: load the image you want to use for your button onto some website that holds images. lots of girls use their profiles for this (just don't select an album and they won't be visible in your albums.)

Step 2: get the url for the button picture (which will be 456), and the url for the location you want the button to go to (123).

Step 3: use the following code

<p><a href=123><img src=456></a></p>

a href tells the browser where you want the link to go. img src tells the browser to use the image at the indicated url. p tells the browser to give it it's own paragraph.

TEST THIS. Keep your code in a separate text document so you don't lose it if I messed up. I might have missed something somewhere.

Well, it looks like I got the code right, but I can't for the life of me figure out the url for the pics! x.x

EDIT: GOT IT!

After you add it to your albums without selecting an album, you will find it under "unassigned". Click on the picture to take you to the edit picture window, then click on the picture again to open it in a new tab. The address bar will have the picture url.

So there you go. Happy coding!

EDIT again.
