How do you put those automatic writings are the bottom of your posts and such.    I.E. where there's that line and it'll say what book you are reading and what deals you are offering??  I can't seem to figure it out?

This is in your settings page ( a tab in your account pages, or a link in the My Account tab in the gray bar above)

It is called your SIGNATURE and found in the FORUM SECTION of the settings page.

In that same section you can add pics. To learn more about pics go to

Chris B. - mannythepoolshark  profile, and click her notebook entries, to show them all, the last entry is a tutorial for pics and avatars.

ETA: I see you've found the signature part :)

There are several ways, but the way I remember best is:

Paste the link into your post.  It'll turn "link" color. 

Then highlight the whole link. 

While it is highlighted, start typing the word or words you want to show up as your link.  If there are 2 or more words, type them without any spaces.  Once you hit the space bar, the link ends. 

You can then go back and add spaces (or edit) your words.
