board question - signatures

I see the new boards allow us to have picture signatures, bravo.

but it doesn't seem to want ME to have one.

I'm not stranger to boards and I know how these are usually done.

when I try uploading my sig from computer... nothing. It just goes back to my edit sig screen.

when I try using a photo host (tinypic) for my sig, it says "invalid url".

anyone who is successfully using a picture sig have any suggestions??

We put the image link in the signature text, rather than the URL spot provided

I don't know if this will help or not, but the board was rejecting my avatar because the .IMG extention was in upcase letters, not lowercase like it wanted it to be. I had to rename the file to get it to work.


I'm Tealeaf, and I approve of this message.

Yeah, that was an odd one. Did you try it on the non-beta verison of the forums?
