How do I host a sig pic

in Ashes Of Creation General Discussion
So I have tried using imgur and a few others. But anytime I click the "attach image" icon in preferences to add my sig..nothing happens. It just sits there. What site is people using to host sigs?

    Imgur should be working. Could you post the link to the image that you are using?

    You'll need to get direct link to your image to have it appear in your signature.

    Alternatively, you can just drag and drop your image from a folder straight into your sig

    Odd, what format is your signature? I can't even see it on Imgur.

    I can see it. I don't know why he can't link it though. For some reason you have to right click and then click view image. It is a jpg

    Odd, I can't see it. It appears as a broken link for me in Imgur. Can you see it below?

    Nope, weird. I tried on both my phone and my desktop. Phone, it shows up instantly. Desktop, I have to right click. Smh Lol

    I think your Image is too big for a signature?

    That's possible. Though, it is supposed to auto resize. Can you see it? It is rather large.

     I don't think Imgur has a size restriction though. 

    This is vexing. Lol.

    For Imgur linking to work for me I just kept trying with the different link types til it worked.  After you get the link in your sig box you will need to click and save for it to show up.  At least this is my experience.

    Just re-upload the image again and try it with a new link

    If you're using imgur you'll have to use the link that starts with and ends with i.imgur.com/specialurlcode.png or jpeg or gif, depending on what you're using of course. This has been show up above, but just to check ;)

    1. Upload the sig to Flirkr and set to public
    2. Go to share and then copy the whole embedded link
    3. Example of link 
    <a data-flickr-embed="true"  href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/15647618@N06/34518117654/in/dateposted/" title="AOC MONSTER"><img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4248/34518117654_4c6b8e5eb3_h.jpg" width="1269" height="1600" alt="AOC MONSTER"></a><script async src="//embedr.flickr.com/assets/client-code.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    4. Choose the "static" section as your sig
