TUTORIAL: Adding Examples (Card, Laminated, Matted, etc) To Your Profile
I recommend printing these instructions so that you have them handy for reference. It is easier than switching back and forth to this screen.
Click on “my bubble”.
Click on “art” (on the 2nd row of links – not the top one).
You should see “My Art” page – this is the page where you can edit your pics.
Choose your photo and click on “Show Public View”.
Click “Buy/Preview”. (Note: You won’t actually be buying, only previewing)
Choose the card or frame of your choice. Make your mat or color selections, etc.
When the image of your framed photo appears on the screen, right click on the photo. A pop-up box will appear. Right click on the photo.
In the pop-up box, click on “properties” (at the bottom).
The “Properties” box will pop up – highlight the address (URL) . {Click & drag will highlight the entire address}
IMPORTANT: Be sure to highlight the entire address – only two lines will be visible, but if a third line of the address hidden, be sure you drag down to highlight all lines of the address.
Next copy the URL address. Press Ctrl-C (press the control key and the “C” key at the same time). You won’t see anything happen on the screen, but that is fine. Click OK to close the “Properties” box.
Go to “Edit Your Profile” and scroll down to the “About You” box. Click in the box where you want this example to be shown. Now press Ctrl-V (press control key and the “V” key at the same time). You should see the URL address.
Put an exclamation point ( ! ) in front of the URL address and another one at the end of the URL address. It should be similar to this example, but without the spaces:
! http://images-0.redbubble.com/img/art/cropped/size:xsmall/view:main/993259-1-yellowstone-in-winter.jpg !
Remember, NO SPACES before or after the exclamation point (!) – the beginning of the URL should look like this:
!http://
The end of the URL address should look like this:
winter.jpg!
NOTE: These will be full-size copies of the images. If you would like to have smaller images (see my profile for examples) that don’t take up so much room, see my other tutorial on how to resize the images.
Have a blessed day!

Oh Thankyou soo much- I’ve been trying to add stuff to my profile for ages and have tried other tutorials but this was the one that actually told me to highlight the URL all the way down to the third line which was the IMPORTANT bit I missed all along!! Thanks again : )
