i've tried to get an pic for my signature but it says something like dynamic [IMG] tags are not allowed. what's that mean? as you can see my signature is just a link, but i want it to be a pic. i know there was another topic on this but i read it but didn't understand. plz put in nice simple terms.

This has been asked before. Try to remove the .img from the photobucket.com url. That's how I got mine on. :)

So this is what you do:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v305/riven1/flamecopy.bmp

The bold part is the one you remove. :D

ok, now it's saying:

You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board. A valid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.gif, an invalid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.one.gif

whatever that means.

That's because you are using .bmp aren't you? You can't use that image format, try using jpeg or png. If you don't want to change your picture while doing this. Just go to MS paint and open your file. then click Save As then change the file format below to .jpg .jpeg .gif or .png

I reccomend PNG. If that has too big a file size then Jpeg and if that messes up everything then don't even bother with Gif....

mine works with the .img in the url.

It may be that the []'s on one tag might have, slipped... But never mind, you fixed it...
