Hi everyone.
For the past month or so I have been using the following as my signature on the forums:
I’ve seen 1 or 2 others doing the same with their profiles, but for anyone that wants to have a go themselves here’s a short guide.
What you’ll need:
- Forza Horizon 3
- Microsoft Paint or any other image editing software.
-
In Forza Horizon 3 head to [Community] > [My Storefront].
-
You should see the following screen:
-
Take a screenshot of that image.
If you’re on Xbox One press [Guide], then .
If you’re on Windows 10 you can use Alt+PrtScrn instead. -
If you’re on Xbox One, move over to your PC, head to this site and input your Gamertag.
You should be able to find a Screenshots section (here’s mine).
Go to the screenshot you just took and download it. -
Open Microsoft Paint or whatever image editing software you have available.
If you were on Windows 10 already then pressing Ctrl+V should paste your screenshot into Paint for you. -
Use the [Select] tool and drag a box over your Gamertag/Storefront information box.
-
Select [Crop] and it should look like this:
-
Next you will need to rezise your image. ForzaMotorsport.net limits signatures to a maximum height of 115px, and re-sizing your image now will prevent the forum from doing so automatically (which can result in a slightly blurred image).
Select [Resize], then [Pixels] and input [115] into the [Vertical] field:
-
Save your image, and then head to the image hosting provider of your choice (I recommend Imgur.com for something like this, though Flickr is also a good choice).
-
Upload your image and copy the image URL. It should look something like this: http://i.imgur.com/ylMVd46.png
-
Click on [Insert Image], paste your image URL and hit [Save].
And there you have it, a simple signature showing off your key Forza Horizon 3 profile information.
Naturally, as it is a static image it will not dynamically update, so if you change your Gamertag, Club, Profile Pic or your Storefront status increases, you’ll have to repeat the process.
