Some sig pics are larger than minimum size for upload. How do you do this?

You'll need to resize the picture to 500 by 100 pixels or 19.5 KB in a proggie such as adobe photoshop. Let me know if you need help with that.

What i did was upload my sig pic at imageshack.us
then use the insert picture button and copy the url.

Also if you need to resize pictures, check out irfan view.
It's free and you can get it at download.com

Does this have to be done with each post?

Bigger images are probably hosted elsewhere.  My sig pic is on my site's server.  Are you familiar with the vB tags?  Say, in a post you want to display an image from elsewhere IN the post rather than as an attachment...you would use the code:
[ i m g ]http://wherever.com/something.jpb/gif/etc[ / i m g ]
But without the spaces on the start/end tags.  Same goes for the signature.  Just toss in the tags and the URL for the image in your sig text and BAM, there it is.
If you have a pic you want to use, email it to me and I will host it for ya.  Same goes for anyone here.
