You gotta use the thingie at the top of the screen, the User CP or whatever it's called. Then you just plug your sig in the box there, & voila l'image!

Get a load of my death mask below! >

^^make sure the picture you are using is in photobucket

( www.photobucket.com if you don't have an account)

go to user CP

go to edit my signature

do NOT go to sig pic. go to the top part that has the empty box and it says "edit signature"


in photobucket, you get 4 links to each picture. use the one that starts with < a href


it will say "HTML code"

copy that link, then add any text you want to it.

your sig pic should come up then. make sure to edit it as big or small as you want. also remember in photobucket, once you edit it down to size, you can't go back unless you delete the whole thing and start over. let me know if you have any problems. good luck

ok. i did the photobucket thing. i got the picture that i want on there, my only problem now is that when i copy the picuture to the signature box it is absolutely huge. but on photobucket it is the size i want.

so i cant figure out how to save the size i want in photo bucket.

but i figured everything else out. it only took me an hour Ha! you think im kidding but im not im so not good at this computer stuff .

your directions were really good and thanks so much for helping me, now the only thing i need help is getting it the right size. thanks for being patient too.

click on the picture and make sure it's the size you want it. then go ahead and put it on the ledge like the directions. you might have to log out and log back in for it to show up right. it will look right to us, just not to you for awhile. i've had that happen to me before too
