If you have your hardware profile link in your sig, we can see what hardware you have when answering support questions.

Mine is on the left below.

First visit this thread to get your computer hardware details, it's just a couple of clicks.
http://dreamlinuxforums.org/index.php/topic,845.0.html

Now take those details and post them in our profile thread:
http://dreamlinuxforums.org/index.php/topic,846.0.html

Now you can put a link to that post in your signature.

Go to your Profile (buttons at the top by login etc) and edit your signature.
You just need to add a link like this:

Code:

[url=http://link-to-your-post-in-my-hardware-profile-thread]My Hardware Profile[/url]

Mine looks like this:

Code:

[url=http://dreamlinuxforums.org/index.php/topic,846.msg5002.html#msg5002]My Hardware Profile[/url]

Now we can see your hardware at a click. You can even go back and edit the post and tidy it up, or add more info any tme you want.

This makes it really easy for us to see [all of] your hardware in a second, when we are helping you solve a problem.

Makes your sig look nice too

Hey Rich... just thought I would ask here... since it may be confusing to others as well...

I can't work out how to do the link to the post... I understand everything except the message number where do I find out that? It is probably obvious and I am missing it but for the life of me I can't find it... so my signature looks like this at the moment...

My Hardware Profile

Which isn't going to work

Cool idea though

If you look directly at the top of this post, there is blue text that says "Re:[Howto] Add..."  You can left click the title of this specific message and "copy link location" to get a copy of the link to put in your sig.

Using that link you would

Code:

[url=http://your.message.link]My Hardware Profile[/url]
