IN the FAQ's is states that BB codes and HMTL may be turned on or off. Do I need the HTML ON to allow pictures in the Signature box and if so how do I turn it on

HTML and BB code is on I believe.

Domski has active code in his signature block but it could be hosted elsewhere. Not my strongest area technically.

My BB code is on but my HTML is off

To be honest I'm not really sure, I can ask Eamonn but as I'm heading to Brands this afternoon you won't get anything back from me until tomorrow.

I would have thought that BB code was sufficient. Is the pic being hosted somewhere else and you are trying to display it using the img tags?

[Steve M]

I don't know where to try ro attch the pic - there's no browse box like for the avatar.

Steve,
First off you need to have your image hosted somewhere, i.e. on a server.
Next,
Edit your profile and in you signature area add "[img]" followed by the http location of your image and then followed by the closing tag "[/img]"
That should do it

[Steve M]

Thanks Alan. For some reason I can't upload attachements (except the Avatar) from my work pooter and Lycos seem to have stopped the free web space I was using.

Yep - you can't upload into a sig block, the pic needs to be hosted elsewhere using the img tags - as demonstrated above.

I'm sur eif you asked nicely that one of the DSC peeps would hos tit for you. Desmondo, Antonye, Domski all have oodles of their own webspace.
