Signature Issue

[bsquared]

I uploaded a custom signature file from my PC. THe properties on the signature now say 500 x 64 which should meet the size requirements. Should not the signature show at the end of my post?
Am I having a senior moment? I checked for other "Signatue Issues" but I must be the only dummy!

Nope you aren't having a sr. moment! You are dealing with a more complex signature.

After you upload the pic, you then need to click on this link next to the image:

Insert Signature Picture

Then look in the text box above. You should see some html code that includes your image.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi Brooks,

You're not having a senior moment, it's not obvious since it's a two step process. After uploading your signature picture (which you did successfully!), you need to click the link "Insert Signature Picture" that's beside the signature picture. This will insert the tags {SIGPIC}{/SIGPIC} in the signature text area above. That should make the image visible. Give it a try, if it doesn't work I'll see if I can make the adjustment for you.

You gotta get up pretty early to get the worm

Look for the words SIGPIC in the box.

Do you see all the smilies and a text formatting buttons above the box?

I never see the words SIGPIC in the above box.
I do see all of the smiley guys below the signature box.
Could this be a Vista issue?

For kicks, try typing a signature in the box.

Then click "Save Signauture" at the bottom.

Lets see if you can setup a basic text sig.

That seemed to work. My text stayed in the box.

Try two different tests please.

First, try the Insert link and see if you get the SIGPIC.

If that doesn't work, then try to paste this in the text box and save:

[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I went back to the top signature box and tried to change the font or font color and all of those seem to be disabled. thEY ALL WORK IN THE REPLY TO THREAD BOX.

When I pasted the [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] in the signature box my image magically appeared in the signature box. It must be magic! You are truly a wizard.

Thanks for all of your help!
