    |
|
Hi there,
I have been editing my sig to include an album of Jess I have just created and a few links to other parts of the interweb I frequent 
The problem I have is that I don't think I'm getting my 500 character limit 
I have physically counted the characters and its well under 500, but it just won't have it. I have tested this by adding a nd removing different links. The moment I add everything I want, it cuts my code in half and I lose a link or two (depending on what I add). Phew!
I have my links, but only if I omit the code for my sig pic (which was "meet Jessie"). I'd love my pic too, what gives?

I think the limit is actually 250... the web page is telling fibs. 
If you are trying to display an image, try uploading it to the photo gallery on here, then right click on the thumbnail (not the full size photo!) and select properties it should show you the URL of the picture. If you use that in your signature but remove the labradorforums.co.uk address at the start (so all you have left is /modules/Gallery...... etc) then that may work and save you a few precious characters.

Thanks for the suggestions Stuart, but I still can't get it under 250 characters  Oh well, I'll just have to rough it with what I have.
Funny how it says 500 limit, but is really 250 though
