Sig question...

Okay, got a dumb question...I am trying to put a pic of my car in my sig but everytime I try to upload it, I get the "file is to large" msg. I have shrunk down the physical size and the storage size of the file and changed it from a jpg to a bmp. Can someone please let me know what I am doing wrong. I know a little about pc's but this is just pissing me off. Oh, thanks in advance for any info provided

Why would you change it to a bmp? The jpg has a better compression and will take less space. Are you sure that image is within the contraints?

^ what he said. Also, you might try redusing the pixel density (DPI) to something like 90 DPI.

I was able to get the pic loaded onto my profile but how do I get it show up on my sig? I tried the insert image button but I am not sure what is meant by type text tp be formatted. Do I put the filename for the pic that I want? Thanks again for the help.

And we also ask that you not upload a pic to our server and use it in your signature - try using www.acurainspired.com - they are a partner and allow much more for image hosting.

Okay, I obviously got it. I was going about it all wrong. I was trying to load the pic to my profile and then add it to my sig...which auto just asked me not to do, sorry...but I finally figured it out by an example. Let me know if my pic is to big and I will make it smaller. Thanks again for all the help.

Cool! It's a little wide, but I'm ok with it since it's not huge and in my opinion the height is the critical value.
