Re: Signature Line(s) & Graphics

So people have gone around the system with certain "coding" to get their signature graphics to appear, if we ban the HTML coding, then, NO links or anyting would appear and some have links to their own pics/websites, etc. We only banned the IMG coding for signatures,

yes maybe after some upgrades, it was left turned on or not an option anymore? Not sure.

many other forums have it, and all you see if graphics for one word postings throughout and you cannot even get to see the real topics with scrolling thru pages and pages of sig. graphics.

Most people on here are abiding by the rules and the ones with graphics, the image mostly small and unobtrusive.

Dave, in the User CP panel, under signature, it has the option to load a sig pic. Which wasn't there before the current upgrade. I think that's where the confusion arose(at least from me).

Thanks for clearing it up!
