Adding Siggies to Messages on Cafemom*

[toadilypeachy]

In Toadily Grand Slammin Profiles (TGSP), we have 60+ tutorials that our members use to help them with adding all sorts of things to their Cafemom page.. These tutorials are available to members only but... I've decided to release a couple of these tutorials to all members of Cafemom! These are © to me and may NOT be copied and shared!

Since everyone loves siggies (it seems! lol), I've decided to make my signature tutorial available to all! The following tutorial explains how to add a signature to your messages on Cafemom! If you'd like to know how to add a signature to Yahoo, Hotmail or AOL, you'll have to join TGSP to view those tutorials!

Wow! This is what I've been looking for .....TMI for all at once., but a point of reference I'm glad to have found. I should have been reading instructions in order from the start!.... ,,,, hind sight is 20/20! Funny how phrases become clear years after you've heard them a thousand times!

[toadilypeachy]

so true about hindsight being 20/20! I've come to that realization more times than I care to admit! lol

Now I have a desk top available, and I still can't add a Siggie as my signature! What do I do! This thing says its not operating at this time

[toadilypeachy]

Are you trying to add a siggy to Cafemom or somewhere else? And what is telling you it's "not operating at this time"?

[Esegirl]

Exactly what I wamt. Thanks a lot. I love this.

[SissyAnn141]

BUMP!

[kandis1021]

Yes it does say that. Not operating or not an option....most of the time I'm on my iPad ...the first one. So there are not many possibilities at this time. However my husband has a new desk top and I can use it. I truly want to show off the lovely Siggies I have collected, but sadly have been unable to do so. .... Thank you for your response... ToadilyPeachy... : )
