Signature graphics?
I'm trying to add a signature graphic via the linking to my server but get an error Invalid URL whenever I try it. Here's the graphic image I am trying to use -> http://www.corvetteflorida.com/pics/RichZ_sig.jpg
Uploading from my local drive won't work, because the maximum size limit is only 19K. At 500x100 for the max size, even a 1 pixel monocolor image would be 50K, so why such a restrictive size setting? yeah, I know, bandwidth, but still, the file size limit in relation to the image pixel dimensions doesn't make much sense to me.
So what am I doing wrong with the first part of this question?

Here's where I filled in the blank.

And here's the error message I got.

So I just bypassed it by using the IMG tags around the URL. Still not sure what is wrong with the URL link though. Unless the 19.5kb limit applies to the URLs linked in the signature as well as the upload process. But not sure why the IMG tags would work then........
Thanks.

Well the URL process just doesn't seem to work for me.
