How to make a pic that is a link in my sig

[M. Scott]

I put a couple of stories of mine on Amazon KDP and would like to put the covers in my signature, linking them directly to the Amazon page. How would I go about this?

When you're typing a post or editing a signature there are two little linky images in the controls. One looks like a landscape with a mountain and the other one looks like a planet with a paperclip. Insert the url of your image using the landscape button called "insert image" then highlight the resulting BB code that will include that url, click on the planet button and type in the url of your amazon page... voila! your image should be linked and visible in your signature.

Did it work for you?

{url=Paste in the link for your book} Paste in link to image {/url}

(use regular brackets, not curly)

Looks like I got it!

Just for future ref, if anyone's wondering, you use the URL and IMG tags to nest your cover image inside the link, e.g.

http://yourimagelink.jpg (http://yourbooklink.htm)

so if anyone clicks on the image, they're taken to the linked address.

This is probably already somewhere in FAQs forum, but one more never hurts!
