I've searched for how to add a signature to the bottom of posts and cant seem to find anything. Am I using the wrong term? a lot of people have something at the end of all their messages but I cant figure out how to make my own. thanks for the help!

Go to your profile. On the left hand side there is a list that includes Edit Signature. That's the place you can create the lines at the bottom of your posts.
Kathi and the Turbotail April Angel...and the Labradork
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
Thanks Kathi! I had been looking at the profile for the blogs, I hadn't noticed a separate profile section for the forum....oops!

thanks! I need to play around with it. I actually decided on the blog because a lot of my facebook friends are squeamish so I wanted a place the non-weenies could get updates and the fact that its attached to the forum is even better!

Thanks for asking this question, Cynthia! I had been wondering, but never got around to asking😀
Otis - 106 pound lab/Dane mix, lost his right front leg to osteosarcoma on Febuary 9, 2016. Four rounds of carboplatin completed in April, 2016. Lung mets August 25, 2016. Said goodbye too soon on September 4, 2016. Lost his adopted sister, Tess, suddenly on October 9, 2016. likely due to hemangiosarcoma.
Wherever they are, they are together.
Thank you for helping eachother out before we could get to this question. This community ROCKS!

OK, feeling like an idiot. I have a signature, so was obviously able to do this successfully once, but now I want to edit it and cannot find the edit signature option in my profile. Help?

Ok quitting for the night. Darn think won't work. Maybe because I'm on my phone instead of a computer.

Hmmm...technically speaking, there is no signature in the blog. (One could be added if using a theme that allows footer widgets.)
Anyway, the steps are similar for adding/editing a forum signature on desktop and phone browsers:
On Phone: tap Actions -> tap Your Profile -> scroll to Edit Signature -> add signature -> update signature
On Desktop: click Profile -> click Edit Signature -> add signature -> update signature
iPhone and desktop browser screenshots for clarification follow below. Hope this helps!

Holy 
Batman!! I ALMOST did one for Happy Hannah!!!!
Anyway you can scrunch it up some so it fits???
Remember, my tavlet doesn't have all the font, ability to italicize, bold, make paragraphs, etc choices. Something about tavlets don't have tiny mice???
Which brings me to.....anyway when you do those maintenance update things it can be fixed so tavlets can have all the font, etc selections regular computers can?
Oh...And one more thing....how do you add a photo to the signature?
THANKS!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!
PS. If you would come to the Tripawds pawty we could have a tavlet session like we did last year! Then again, maybe that's why you aren't coming
