Smilie Signature Help

[froggythrower]

Quick question - I want to add a smillie of my own findings(it's not rude) to my signature(like all you lot with your flashing fancy graphics) but every time I drag it from the webpage onto my signature edit page in user CP, another internet explorer page opens up instead.
Why can I only use the pre-loaded smillies on the site, there must be a way.

Try Image Shack or similar to host your picture. You shouldn't have any problems.

You need to open a photo hoasting site account.
Here is one option: Photobucket
You then need to upload the pictures you want in your signature into a (free) Hoasting site. I happen to use this site.
Copy and Paste IMG link into signature. You will need to move it around in your Signature window to have it shown where you want it in your posted Signature.


Edit: Dan, Couldn't remember that one.

It's the only one I have used, my knowledge is limited in that dept. but I know
even I had no problems.

Your welcome! If you don't want to make an account, there is none needed for Image Shack. I don't know about other similar sites though.
