Doesn't work for you either?

The signature photo is not like other photos attached to your posts.
The Forum Software automatically re-sizes your images to the maximum size when you upload them.

Not so your signature post.

There is a note at the bottom of the screen above the "upload" button that reads:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 468 by 60 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

To upload a signature photo, you must reduce the pixel count with a photo editor to 468x60 pixels maximum BUT the file size is still limited to 19.5 KB.

It took me several tries to get a photo small enough to be acceptable yet still "look" like the photo I was trying to use.

Hope that helps.

>User CP
>>Edit Signature (left side menu)

1. Add text to your signature

2. under Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer. Locate the image on your hard drive by selecting 'browse' that you want to use in your signature. Note the size restrictions as no image will load if this is not met.

3. Click upload. Once you have uploaded the image you shoudl see it display below the signature editor.

4. Place your cursor in the location where you want your image to display in your signature (in the editor box). Click on the link to 'insert signature picture' to add it to your signature. You will see the image code appear in the editor at that location. it looks like this: [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

You can click the preview signature button to check that you have your set up just right and then edit again if needed. The preview will appear above the editor.

Some tips:

• Sig images are wide and not tall - if you need help making an image like this we can help. but will need you to post the base images.
• Your signature will not display in posts unless you have selected that option when you make the post. There is also a setting in your user CP (options) to display your signature on posts.
