OT - How to insert audiogram in signature

[walterb]

I couldn't find any place else to ask this question.

I'm trying to add my audiogram results to my signature. I've tried pasting it in, but the format is not retained. I get the same results with text I type in myself.

I've attached the file.

Thanks for any help.:confused:

Click User CP. Under Settings & Options, click Edit Signature.

[walterb]

Yes, I do that. However, when I enter the text under my name as a table, it loses the format.

The signature area will not allow formatting, so you have to use spaces.
I had to play around with it...and keep using the Preview button to see how it looked.
Why don't you copy mine (or someone else's) and put that into your signature and then just change the numbers to your results.

Thanks, that worked. Actually had to use ".", spaces didn't do it.

Duh (on my part). That's why there are ...'s in mine. :rolleyes:
Glad to be of help.

I know this has probably been asked before, but why do some people post their audio-grams in their signatures? What is the purpose?

I wrote mine in a word doc and copy and pasted to my "edit signature" in the CP...

I did it so others could see my level of hearing loss, in detail. The experts can tell a lot from the audiogram so when I have questions it makes it easier for them to answer.

As I am currently looking to buy new HA's, being able to read a posted audiogram is helpful as I am able to compare the poster's level of hearing loss with my own, and then look at what HA's they are wearing, as well as their experiences with the different brands, to see if they might work for me.
For example, Don's loss is slightly greater in some frequencies than mine, and slightly worse in others. He has tried a couple of Costco options; the Rexton Cobalts and Resound Futures. His audiogram and detailed posting of his experiences with these HA's have told me that either would probably work for me. So I will be going to Costco on Monday to check them out.:)
