Posting Sigs

I have been trying to add a sig for over a week now. I can type text in for my sig (as shows on my posts) but cannot add a picture sig? It isn't my computer because I can cut, copy, and paste anywhere else, just not the sig block?

better check with someone a bit more tech savy, but i think you can upload an avy from your PC but your siggy will need to be hosted from something like photobucket or imageshack. Don't quote me on that.

Pick a site, go to it, upload your pic from your desktop to there site, they will give you a series of links, take the link and paste it into your Sig field make sure its embedded in the image tags [img]insert%20link%20here[/img]

And you sig should work.
Deep within Noob Cave, you find a strange pool filled with a glowing blue liquid. You think back to what your mother told you about unfamiliar liquids found in caves.

You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

you can upload avys directly from your pc as there is an option to save them on forums

you need to upload your sigs somewhere on the internet. free hosting sites are like Lore said Photobucket or Imageshack. Then you can link it to your sig using the [img]link[/img] tags

Re: Posting Sigs

Tried photobucket. It tried to load for over an hour and never did. It must me the sucky ISP here in Iraq. I guess I'll just wait to load any sig pics until I get back to Germany and some real internet. Thanks anyway everyone.

You could also just send me the photo via MSN and I could host it for you.

Re: Posting Sigs

I finally got my sigs working thanks to Jack.

The darker one was created by FoxFight minus the logo, that was done by one of my soldiers.

The other one was created by CJL
