Same way as normal images. Just type in:

Code: Select all

[img]http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?image=georgelopezsigsi8.jpg[/img]

Into your signature box.

Almost.
You need the direct image link, which in this case is:

Your signature code would be as such:

Code: Select all

Thanks guys.

Hey Tural. What did you mean when you said "Direct Image Link"? If I want to find the picture to post it here via imageshack, how do I?

If you upload to Imageshack, the direct link is the very bottom textbox on the information page. I don't know how to explain it. You just need the direct link to the image file, not a link to the page with the image on it.

This is a page:
http://img513.imageshack.us/my.php?imag ... sigsi8.jpg
The page is "my.php" and it displays the image.
If you go there, you see the box labeled "Direct." You use that link. Alternatively, you can right-click the image and choose "Copy image location."

This is an image:
http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/6643 ... sigsi8.jpg
It goes right to the picture, there is no page involved.

Indeed. I missed the fact that it was the .php image viewer and not the image itself.

for the record, why did you guys help me if the pic was too big? Not that I don't appreciate it though. What is the sig hight limit?

The first image you had was not oversized. You used a different one afterwards, which was. The limits are all explained in the rules, which you should have read.

It's oversized again

now is it?

EDIT : I did not add a big enter to it this time

Go read the rules.

oh. I had a hard time seeing how high the pic was. Sorry.

Right click the image, choose Properties. Look at the dimensions and file size there.
