Do you have to put the pic up on photobucket and then enter the URL into the little box down at the very bottom of that page? I put this in there <a href="http://s459.photobucket.com/albums/qq318/justinsn95/?action=view&current=monkeypwnzdog.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://i459.photobucket.com/albums/qq318/justinsn95/monkeypwnzdog.gif" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

But it did not work.

Hope this helps

for a website link

[ url=http://www.siteyouwantpeopletogoto]thenamethatwillshowasclickable[/url]

take the space out between the [ and url and add your url and what you want to be the name of the clickable

for say photobucket (just a picture)

   [ img]http://photobucketwebpage.com[/img]

Again take the space out between [ and img

with photobucket you can just copy the img link below the pick you want

I prefer you NOT posting something that large with non-truck related pics in your signature.. 
If you want to put something in your sig, please keep in mind that it will increase the amount of space your post takes up.  Kinda reserve the size to about 80pixles high..

Now its not letting me change the avatar. I put a new smaller pic into the "browse" spot coming from my computer, and it just does not change it when i hit save settings. As for the sig, Bowtieguy's sig is pretty big, is it ok to make one that size?

I would prefer it not be that big, but that is about as large as I would like to see here.

DO NOT put the link above in your sig, and do not put the "Deer" back on here.  This is a family friendly site, and I plan to keep it that way, so choose your avatar accordingly.

I was kinda testing with the deer, i could not get it to change and i never saw the deer appear. I hope Bert is ok.
