I'm guessing the sig image doesnt exist or the image is too big. Or maybe your host doesnt support direct linking.

well here's a way to test if it's that image or not.

find another image on line, copy its url, and in the your sig put



If that works, you'll know it's your image, otherwise, i dunno.

Woah, no cigar. Try removing all space from the image filename.

After various tests it appears you can't have files with spaces in them.

Boo!
