Part 1:
*DISCLAIMER* - Your signature picture can NOT exceed 500x250 in size. Any pictures that do will be subject to removal by the admin.
For starters, you need to find a place that will host your image/picture. You must use a hosting site for this. There are a few decent places that do it for free like.....
www.photobucket.com or www.imageshack.us
I chose to use Photobucket for this as I found it easier to use for demonstration purposes, and because it's easier to access from anywhere.
To start, you need to create an account if you dont already have a hosting site account. To do this....go to www.photobucket.com Once there, you will need to register for an account. This takes a few seconds and you fill out a little information.
