    I wonder if you can help with this. I have been adjusting my signature banner and have uploaded a new image to photobucket. I have then copied the URL and tried to change the image in the forum but it just says [​IMG]

    Upload the banner to another image hosting :)

    Thank you, Gery, for your assistance. :)

    Hello muscaricat, :oops:

    The image your have linked in your signature has been removed from that location, so you will need to upload it again and use the new link to fix this problem, as Gery kindly pointed out.
    Did this work? Do you require further assistance with your signature, or anything else at the moment? :)

    Good morning and thank you Gery and Teddy for your help. As you can see from my signature now, it is no better. I have now registered for dropbox and that doesn't work either; tried uploading image to photobucket again ( which worked for me before), got URL and pasted it in the drop down menu on the signature and you can see what I have got ! The old grey cells are stumped at the minute as I don't usually do anything with images etc. so rather out of my depth. Any further suggestions welcome - are there any reliable 'image hosting' sites for example ?
    I know there are some players, like Gery, who make wonderful signatures but I am stubbornly determined to do it myself if at all possible !

    Good morning muscaricat, :oops:

    I am sorry to see you are still having problems with the signature. Please don't copy the URL, but copy the content of the IMG code from the right side of your hosting site, which in your case is:

    [​IMG]

    Code:
    [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u373/gertie430/muscaricatfinalbanner2.jpg[/IMG]
    Did this work?

    Good afternoon now :cry:
    Thank you but it still doesn't work...... The IMG code on the hosting site includes a URL, have tried again but no luck. Have tried using the code from your last posting, which obviously worked for you, but no good. I must be doing something silly but what ?

    Hello muscaricat :(

    Could you please copy and paste the content of your signature in a forum posts? That will allow us to see what exactly is going on in your signature. ​

    I am not sure at the moment o_O but it seems like you got it right! The image might disappear because the link on it has been removed. Could you try to include in your signature this code, and see if this works?

    Code:
    [URL=http://s1064.photobucket.com/user/gertie430/media/muscaricatfinalbanner.png.html][IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u373/gertie430/muscaricatfinalbanner.png[/IMG][/URL]

    I do apologize if this is considered as hijacking of thread :oops:

    Hello muscaricat

    I too had difficulties with the signature.

    If I copied the IMG code from photobucket I got the same result as you. I then tried to copy the Direct code and that seems to work - at least I hope so, did look nice in preview .... soon will see xD

    Sorry I have been so long - a busy day today as we are renovating the kitchen.....
    I have tried putting the code above in the space where the image should go, above the line of blue saying farm level etc, but when I try to save changes it says error you can only have one image/s.Not sure why as space is blank except for the line of blue writing. If I put your code line in the box it still says IMG. Was that what you wanted me to try ?
    [/SIZE][/FONT]

    Hi Bonderosen - I tried it and it does work, I get the signature image but when I tried to save the image it still says 'Error you can't have more than 1 image/s' !!!! I then looked at the preview which gives a clue - there is the new banner image and underneath IMG. How do I get rid of this as it only shows in the preview where i can't delete it ??

    Hi muscaricat

    You have to delete the box that is underneath your banner

    Thank you -Bonderosen- for your assistance. :)

    Hello again muscaricat :) Please try -Bonderosen-'s kind suggestion as well - I have just tried it and it worked like a charm. Please delete everything in your signature box, then click on the icon which allows you to enter pictures in your post / signature, and paste the URL of the picture which can be copied by clicking on the "Direct" link from the right side of your image hosting site. ​

    Did this work?

    Well, I really appreciate your efforts but there is still something in the signature box which is not visible until I try a preview or to save the changes. It still gives me [​IMG]

    What is odd is that in my last post above I actually typed what is in the box above the blue writing above, yet it is giving a photo ?

    I'm sorry to see it's still not working. :oops: Let's try something else ... I'm uploading your signature here, please try to include it in your signature box:​
    muscaricatfinalbanner2.jpg

    Code:
    [CENTER][IMG]https://board-en.farmerama.com/index.php?attachments/muscaricatfinalbanner2-jpg.3526/[/IMG][/CENTER]
    Please copy and paste this entire code in the empty signature box (not as if you were including an image, since this already contains the tags for images. You just need to input this as a text).​

    Did this work?

    Have tried every which way with this and still get this on preview and can't save changes as the other image is still there. Have looked up how to take a screenshot so here goes:

    Goodness that worked -hope it helps.

    Hello again muscaricat :oops:

    Please click on the BB code editor button: snip.png this will display the code, and you will be able to see any broken image hiding there, and remove it - then you can enter your code and save the lovely signature as displayed in the preview.
    I really hope this works :)

    Woo hoo, congratulations!
    Thank you for your patience and cooperation on this matter, you have been awesome! :) Next time you change your signature it's going to be piece of cake ( I will be happy to share one with you :inlove: )​

    Is there anything else we can assist you with?
