Some of you have got those picture sigs. How do you do it? What program did you make them on? And how did you get them in the sig box? Have tried pasteing but not happening.

I used Paint Shop Pro to make mine but you could use any image editor - even MS Paint!
You need to get the image hosted somewhere on the internet. You probably already have some web space lying idle courtesy of your ISP. The normal way to upload the images is using FTP. There are lots of free FTP programs available and Internet Explorer can do it too. I use SmartFTP. Your ISP's website should have instructions on how to upload stuff (including the address you'll need to log in to).
Once the image is hosted on the internet, you just put a link to it in your sig. That is you put the internet address of the image file inside [ I M G ] tags (without the spaces), e.g.:
"This is my sig.
http://www.mywebspace.com/mysig.jpg[/I M G]"

Thanks
Will give it a go. Got MS digital image 2006 so should be good enough.
