At the top of the page, there are Menu Commands (Home, Forums, etc). The last one is "My Account" Click on that and select the sub menu for "My Profile"

The sixth item in the second section (Contact Info) on the settings page is "Forum Signature" Click on the highlighted "Settings Area" and you'll be taken to a page where you can create and edit your signature.

The best [person to get ideas from is Jim (Norsky) He qwalked me through it and I was able to add the other pic of my vette and the shark figure. I may be able to help, but Jim is a good teacher!!

It is actually pretty easy....

Go to "Member Control Panel" (near the top left of the forums pages)

Click the "Edit Profile" link.

Look for the signature box and type your signature however you'd like.

If you want to add a photo to it, click the "click to add a photo to your signature" link and follow the instructions.

Finally, make sure to click the "Update Profile" button at the bottom of the page.

When I try to add a pic I continue to get a server timed out message. Not sure what to do to get around this.

That usually means the file(image) is too large. Resize the pics down to a smaller size, and it should upload fine. The recommended width is 200 pixels for sig pics.

Actually, unless his file is insanely large, he should be ok. According to the upload screen instructions:

The width and height do not matter
File must be no larger than 10MB!
It will automatically be resized to 200 pixels in width if needed.

Rodney,

You can also send the picture to either me, Adams' Apple or Norsky via email and we can try to upload it to your account for you.

I know that's what it SAYS, but I have had trouble loading files WAAAAY smaller than that. If I remember about 400kb is all I can upload without getting the Error/time-out message. Ouch

And NO, that is not on dial-up...

Even here at the shop with DSL, it won't accept the larger files.
Maybe it's just me...again... Cry
