Signature picture not working
Hi Pbondar, I just copied and pasted Marlons original URL (2nd response on this topic) into google and it brought up the website. I then opened the imgBB account and then it took a fair bit of playing about with to get the image to be the correct size (or nearly)and plenty of . I found that once I had uploaded the image to imgBB and copied the image address to the edit signature section it was then a process of elimination to find exactly what size the forum would accept. As you can see it worked for me. I’m not the best at IT and there is probably a better and easier way than the way I described but I hope this helped.

I have spent over a year now and never ever managed it..I guess being in the computer industry since 1974 doesn't help...

The dimensions according to resizeimage.net are 231 x 127 px. I hope that this makes sense. As I said it was trial and error to get to this, not as easy as uploading photo's generally to the forum.

Well i reversed engineered your signature and used your pic and that worked, I reduced my pic to 138 pixels high and then now that works..the 150 pixel limit seems to be duff info, at least for me.. it was at 147 pixel high and would not work..weird..

There is a 600 px width limit too - if that's exceeded then being under 150 px in height will still fail.

I daren’t touch my sig for fear of losing it to the murky depths of the etherweb where it would never be found again, it sounds as though splitting the atom would be a much easier taskMarlon wrote: ↑Mon Mar 05, 2018 2:51 pmThere is a 600 px width limit too - if that's exceeded then being under 150 px in height will still fail.

Glad to see that you managed to get your signiture sorted out but how did you get the two images added into it? This is isomething that I tried and wasn't allowed too. I really wanted to add an image of the coupe aswell.

Thanks Marlon, did wonder if that was how to do it. But will have to wait for another day with more time.

Hello as suggested I got two pics down to a 139 ish high size in Microsoft office picture editor...then loaded MS Paint and copied both in and positioned side by side then saved back.Marlon wrote: ↑Mon Mar 05, 2018 7:56 pmPbondar will have combined the two images into one first and then uploaded it
Then back in MS office picture editor cropped to get under the 600 pixel limit (which it did flag up specifically as over 600 limit rather than as in the past just saying couldn’t work out the size) and then uploaded to your site you recommended and VOILA...only taken a year....
