Hi
I have created an image for my sig however it refuses to upload.

as far as i can tell it is within the size constraints and its below 90k...... what am i doing wrong?

error is image cannot be loaded from the passed link

image is here


am i being really dumb? thanks.

edit and now i see there is an annoying white line in the image which was not there before! <sigh> either way if i know why it wont upload i can fix.
thanks.

Needs to be a direct image link (ending in .jpg, .png, etc). Google Drive doesn't allow direct linking so you'll need to use something else, eg Imgur: https://imgur.com

Once it uploads right click the image, open the image in a new tab and you'll have the direct link to the image. Then you want to paste it like this in your sig with the img tags around it:
Code:
[IMG]www.imgur.com/image.png[/IMG]

Just a heads up, even the image on Google drive have the white lines. I think you may want to recheck it in paint or something, while the last car is fine the first three looks like they haven't been positioned properly.

yeah was meant to be working not doing my sig and now not at computer. I will tidy up when I get the chance.

thanks for the heads up
