When modifying your sig, put the url in it, then before the url, put {img}url goes here{/img}
Then replace the { with [ and } with ].
You would have to have some kind of editing program or something to add text and such. I don't know much about it though.

ok, it appears that I am dumb as a brick. I still don't get it.
this is the part I don't get.
{img}url goes here{/img}
I am supposed to change all the {and } to [ and]? I tried that ..nothing.
If you could please fill in the blanks so I can copy and paste it into my sig box
_________http://picture host site address/home-1.jpg_______
home-1.jpg is file name of pic
Maybe then I'll get it. remember, I'm pretty dumb today. Thanks for your patience

hummm
The picture u want to use, , , u must uplaod it on photobucket (or a similar program)... (create a new account there its easy to use). Before that, u can use any program such as paint, to modify the picture u want to use.
Once u have uploaded the picture u want to use (with the modifications u wanted, , text, change the colors, or the size, etc.), , U click on the image code, in photobucket, to copy the link, than u only have to paste it in ur sig... and it shud display properly.
Hope that help u a bit

Thanks Smitty, Thanks Unknown, Thanks Sirinnu you guys are great. It's not your fault it's not working.
I have it hosted at photobucket. I tried copying the url into my sig box ..nothing I tried putting [img and other variations of {img} [img} { /img] and any other combination I could think of in front of the url, in back of the url. nothing worked. I don't get it.If I could give someone acces to my profile I would let you put the thing in there.
I like the picture the way it is. I want to add 'Wizards & Warriors' along the bottom in cool font and a couple of other small ideas. I want to get the pic up first to see how it looks. thanks guys.

I was using the wrong link from photobucket.
Now can anyone help me with the text?
I would like 'Wizards & Warriors' along the bottm edge and 'The orrvs on top left corner' Looking for an interesting font for this.
Thanks all.

Thanks guys for your help. Once I stopped being dumb it was easy.
I had the original at photobucket but it was the wrong shape.
I cropped the pic and added the text in paint. Hosted it at photobucket and used the correct link and voila. Thnx
It's not perfect but it will do for now.
If anyone has an idea on how to improve it I would be happy to listen to all suggestions.
