? Steps to Pic in Sig

Can someone please post the steps to get a picture from PhotoBucket into the Signature?
I've tried the same method I used for my Avatar but that fails.

If it matters, the image properties are:
600px × 120px
85.5 Kb

Thanks!

1) User CP > Edit Signatures

2) Don't use the url option! Type the [img]<url of your photobucket image>[/img] where you want it to go.

3) Click Save Signature

Photobucket has an IMG code you can copy too. Try that if the other way isnt working.

Took me some time to figure out what you folks meant. You mean, paste the entire tag into the text box where I type the text portion of my sig. Got it.
Now I just have to find a hosting site that doesn't make the [img]tag so long that it exceeds our new forums number of lines for a signature. Cuz that's the squawk I got when I tried that.

I removed the text I had in my Sig to fit the Image.
So there it is. Looks absolutely rank amateur, but its my fist attempt, and not knowing much about GIMP had to stumble through it.

I'll work on making a cooler one.
Thanks again!
