why is it that in ONLY replies to other people's posts the big red "X" meaning picture could not be loaded appears for my sig?? I really want the picture of my car (at bottom) to show when i reply, but it only does when regular posting, such as this one

it is the craziest experience you will ever have, i swear. You would think they could invest some time and a little $$ and make it a little easier, but apparently html is still a big deal. I dont expect you to understand what that means now, but you will .....WUHAHAHA

Hey, I have NO idea how to post a picture in my signature...and i spent a while preparing one on photoshop to make it look nice and pretty :(

It's loaded on the photopost section of nico--the first one in here:

type (IMG)http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....i=sig(/IMG) where ther () are actually []. That's what I did and it works. Might not work for an image hosted by NICO though cause it doesn't seem to work in message bodies. try hosting it somewhere else (like http://www.eniety.com/pichost/ if it is still working)

EDIT: The reason that one doesn't work is because it is not the true location of the picture, it is a web page. You need to link to the .jpg itself use http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....3.jpg instead and it should work like this :
