Could I ask that, going forward, people test their signatures in this thread: http://mousescrappers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9243 (I'm not subscribed to that one )

Thanks!

When I right click on your photo, the properties list it as a jpg, which won't show the transparency. Try again to upload a .png. If it doesn't seem to work, try hosting it on another site (e.g. Photobucket) and then including it in your signature with [ img] tags.

BLESS YOUR HEART! I'd given up and went back to it today, Thanks so much!
I'm much happier with it!

I just changed recently my siggy (added a word) - the size of it is 200 x 220, 96.2KB.... but whenever I try to add it from my photobucket URL, it gives me an error saying the remote file is too large... ?! If I add it directly from my computer, it has a white background on it on all my posts what am I doing wrong?!

Can you tell me the URL of the photobucket photo? I will take a look

Need help! when adding another IMG (blinkie) to my siggy it's saying can't be more than 500 characters, etc. But I've seen many siggys with alot of blinkies, or pins.. etc.? What am I doing wrong?

[Carolc]

The pins that many people have aren't actually managed in the signature field in your profile. You can acquire the pins with your 'points' (as seen under your avatar). To see the pin selection, click the yellow "Virtual Pin Shop" link above. As far as the character limit, every URL you include in your signature counts against the limit. To recover some of your space you can delete the tinkerbell pin since it already appears in your row of virtual pins. If you are still short on space you can try using something like tinyurl to make the URL shorter.

Let me know if you have any questions
