Only how do I make my sign show up in this post, rather than just the link?

3. Use photobucket its free otherwise you use the other persons bandwidth

Photobucket or other free photo hosting sites.

4. Convert image to a url

Really easy, go here: http://www.imageshack.us/

8. ????

I went there, clicked on the url button, copy and pasted the link, and it told me the file format I attempted to load is not supported.

It's stuff like this that makes me want to give up on computers entirely. I am obviously missing something that is crystal clear to others, but not to me. Are you able to give me a hint or two?

Some years ago when I wanted to post a picture here someone helpfully gave me a website, which then apparently went out of business a few weeks later. Sigh.

11. Whole bunch of links

It generates all sorts of link, ya might have just grabbed the wrong one. After it generates the url for ya, go the very bottom of the page and copy the "direct link to image" one.

12. Except the website where I made the sign

says please don't directly link.

And if I copy and paste the url and the site which I'm supposed to be able to use to link the url then says it's no good, I'm completely befuddled.

And, what whole bunch of links do you mean?
