Default How to make a sig (for now anyways)

**Updated** I changed the size to 500 X 250 last night/Admin

Piginablanket wrote this. Pretty good explanation.

in the cp go to edit signature and upload a pic (it can only be a max of 500x100 or 9.8kb whichever is smaller, yea that blows) now that it is uploaded you will see a small pic of it (still in the cp) and to the right of it you will see a link that says Insert Signature Picture, just click on that then click the save signature button and there you have it.
Oh and also as a tip, if you want people to see some words when they point at your sig (put your mouse cursor over my sig) here is how you can do it.
After completing the steps above to get your sig pic showing. Go back into cp and the sig section and look at your sig. You will see this [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Now just type whatever you want inbetween the brackets and when someone points at your sig they will see what you typed.

Do we sill need to use "PhotoBucket"??? Where do you get your pic from,I mean do you upload it from your personal comp gallery,with out PhotoBucket involved? Signed,still lost and confused.

I went so far as to print the directions and follow the step by step. I am still having the same issue as SailnJay - the Insert Signature Picture link will not appear even though the signature pic is accepted and the thumbnail is showing.

~MUCH~ Better! Thanks guys!

The new limits are great. 500x250 or 97.7k allows much greater flexibility.

Nomad, you can point to a file on your PC and upload directly from there.

Be sure to select the 'insert signature picture' line.

Thanks again!

Cool,I'am slowly figuring it out,forget Photo Bucket,and upload straight out of comp gallery. Now I've got to e-mail myself my PB stuff,then transfer to my PC gallery (I think). I did get my new HDF "clock" set.
