Step 1: For my layouts, I like to use ImgBB because it does not require you to sign up and you can quickly upload images making it much easier. Some other of my preferred image hosting websites include ImageShack, Tumblr, Imgur, etc. Im sure you'll be able to find some more, but as I said, these are the ones I frequently use (this is mostly a tutorial for ImgBB though :( ). Although the real question is, how are you able to add these images onto your profile? 

Step 2: For nearly all images included on my layout, I use the following 2 codes. Copy and paste these into any section of your layout (about me, general, etc).

1. <a href="(ADD YOUR URL AND REMOVE PARENTHESIS)"><img src="(ADD YOUR URL AND REMOVE PARENTHESIS)" alt="1" border="0"></a>

2. <img src="(ADD YOUR URL AND REMOVE PARENTHESIS)"/>

"But what URL are we supposed to use?", you may ask. This can get confusing, but that's what the next step is for. 

Step 3: Because links can vary from website to website, most have an option to select what type of URL given (psst ImgBB). In most cases, you are able to choose a specific HTML code including your link (these URLs can also be used for code as a much easier way!). For example, on ImgBB after you have uploaded an image, click on "Embed codes" and select "HTML full linked". 

Ladies and gentlemen, there you have it :D

I hope this guide helped you with customizing your layout but if these steps did NOT work for you, please let me know!
