Cant get the sig picture to work, any hints? Saved a photo to desktop, it says it's uploaded, even shows when I try an edit my profile pic, but does not appear when I post....

Profile pic in sig?

Here is an example of setting a sig picture. Profile picture is where you put your actual picture up for people to view if they click on your name and then look at your profile information.

Here is the way I set my sig picture. You have to use an domain type hosting. It would take too much space on server to support all the sig picture sizes people use. You can probably use some type of photo storage site, i.e, flickr, etc., if you don't have access otherwise.

Study the forum help files, the part on UBB codes. You have to use those codes/tags to place an image in the sig box inside your profile. I cannot give you an example of the precise code

because it will only render my sig, which you see. You can right click on my sig, then properties and see the link for the location of the picture. You must then enclose your image link with (IMG) & (/IMG) tags and your picture will show. The UBB tags are not ( ) but [ ], sorry if I put IMG inside the square parenthesis the forums will look for an image.
