How to add Unofficial Trophies to your Profile

HI, since joining I've noticed that many members are not adding their unofficial Contest Trophies to their Profiles.
There may be different reasons why but, just in case some don't add them because they don't know how to, I'd like to explain how to so here goes.
1. Visit your profile.
2. Click on the Widget button on your profile.
3. Add a 'Custom Post' to your profile.
4. Locate the Custom Post on your profile.
5. Highlight the top right corner of the Custom Post to find the drop down menu and click Edit Widget.
6. On the Toolbar you will see this sign <>, click it and a BBcode Window will open.
7. Copy and Paste this code below into the Window.
<a href="pageaddresshere"><img src="imageaddresshere">
8. Add the page http address of the Contest where it says page address here.
9. Add the Trophy image address of the Contest where it says image address here.
If you have not been given an address but instead the PNG image of the Trophy then you will need an account on an image hosting site like Imgur, Imgur is free. Upload your Trophy image and it will give you an address link for it.
Then click Save and your Trophy should be present and clickable taking you to the Contest page.
Hope this helps, apologies if this has already been posted, I did search but nothing was found so here it is.
There is a way to find the link without needing an image hosting account but it's difficult to explain how to locate it, you have to know what you're looking for really. If someone would like to explain how to do that by inspecting element then please do. Or you could ask someone else to do it for you.

Or instead of linking your Trophy to the Contest page you could link it to your entry submission page i.e. the Skin or Build you created for the contest.
