I think we all determined that when putting in a signature one has to hot link using someone like tinypic.com.................... :-3

I can't tell you who told me because I don't want to get Nomad in trouble, but the only way I've been able to do it is to use tinypic.

I just got a thought: post your pic here, if you already haven't. Then copy it off the post, and paste it into the sig. That's basically the same as using tinypic so it just might work.

I did that but all I got was the text....as if it was a link

I tried a few things. I guess tinypic is the way to go, ........ unless you can convince Tombstone to put the option into the sig area to post a pic.

opened the pic and right clicked onto it and opened properties, then copied and pasted the properties into my siggy, I suspect that is hot linking I dunno.

I had the same problem. Seems they changed the order of the items in tinypic.com

Make sure you are highlighting IMG (2nd one down)

not the URL (3rd one down)
