You can't use HTML here. You need to use BBcode. Take the HTML code and run it through this converter. Then after it converts it to BBcode copy and paste it in your sig pic box.

Someone here, can't remember who, set it up as a pic and it worked but can't remember how. Anywho I did mine with the converter.

Please note, although no boardcode and smiley buttons are shown, they are still useable

You can store your pics at photo bucket for free. That's what I use.

I think you can post one on Photobucket.com. Other will chime in too.

Re:SigPic Instructions 9 Years, 10 Months ago  
Can one of you mods tell me why some BB code works on the site and other BB codes do not? For example, if I want to center a photo in a post on one of the craps forums I host using BB code I use left bracket, center, right bracket. Then to turn off centering you use left bracket, /center, right bracket. Replace text with brackets to have the correct code - brackets disappear on sites that use BB code.

Yeah, I'm a tad OCD. I like things like photos centered. Suggestions?

Unfortunately, there is no standard for BBcode like there is for html. This board supports a fairly large part of the common bbcode, but does not do all bbcode. At this point it does not accept nested bbcode (like a pic inside center tags) but it might soon.

Re:SigPic Instructions 9 Years, 10 Months ago  
I have a question... maybe dumb but I figure I won't find out if I don't ask. How do you guys get your pictures so big without running up the kb total. I try to resize mine in photoshop but they're pretty small at under 80kb. What am I doing wrong? Help??
