I found a picture that I'm trying to put up as my signature, but I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

It's probably because of geocities. It doesn't allow remote linked images.

Thanks for the info Rei. So, I guess there's not any way I can get that pic for my sig? It's the only site I've been able to find with a pic that's that good.

I've never used geocities, but someone around here said there's a way to use their service for banners. I think it was Zephyr. I remember him saying to change the extension of the file from gif or jpg to txt, but I could be wrong. You should ask him, or you can wait till he reads this thread :)

Thanks again Rei. I came across another pic to use, but it's still not showing up in my sig. I've gone this long without a signature, I guess I'll just keep on going like this.

just try another image hosting site, like..

imagestation (http://www.imagestation.com/)
or
village photos (http://www.villagephotos.com/)

I must be doing something wrong, because I tried going through an image hosting site and I can't even upload either of the two pics that I'm trying to get.

Yeah, I finally got the second one I found to work. Like I said in the subject "another stupid question". I actually had one of the characters wrong in the address. I still would like to find a way to get the pic from the geocities site. Thanks for the help Rei.
