  • Adding x-rays to signature

    I am planning to get a copy of my before and after x-rays at my 10 week appointment next week. I went to "Edit Signature" to see if I could figure it out and it says "Can upload images to your signature-NO" Any tips on how to do it once I get the CD?
    Thanks!

    Hi Karen, I am unable to upload xrays to my signature also. I don' know why and have only been able to upload them to a post. I have even emailed Mr. O'Brien with no response. I will be looking to see what you find out.

      I haven't tried, but I think how it works is that you upload the image to another site (like Flicker), and then put a link to the image on that site in your signature.

        That didn't work for me either. It has something to do with when you sign up for the forum, it is a permission thing. When I signed up, for some reason they thought I was a child and was denied certain things and I can't seem to get anyone to change it for me. Maybe Linda can help.

          Hee, hee, that made me laugh, Sally, that the forum thinks you are a child. The site must have forgotten to "card you".

            Yeah, and I am probably the oldest person on this forum right now.

                I challenge you on the status of oldest person. Now, I am ok with losing, but I doubt that you are older. My next surgery is June 6th and I turn 68 on June 3 rd. I don't feel old, my thinking is as young as ever, but my body is old.

                  I read your info and I do believe that you are older. I like knowing that I am not the oldest. I hope that you are doing well. Wish me luck on the 6th and 8th. I am very high risk but need the surgery.

                    Hi...

                    As far as I know, no one can add xrays to their signature.

                        You have LINKS to your xray images, not the actual images.

                            Hi littlebird,
                            I was 67 when I had my surgeries and turned 68 two months later. I am now 71 years young. I really don't mind being the oldest because age is just a number. I still have a lot of living to do and am most grateful that my body wasn't too old for the surgery. Are you at high risk because of your age, or is something else going on?

                            I definitely wish you luck with your surgeries.
