Make sure you have the:

" http:// "

Other then that... all I can say is provide the url for the avatar you want (post it on the forum). And I'll/somebody will show you exaclty what should be put in for the avatar url.

Well, thanx for replying but I did what you all told me but it still wont work. On my avatar I want my own pic, so I put the picture address from my website but it still would say not a valid extension. On my Signature where I want to put my banner, I put the address too but all it shows is the address and not the picture. Oh well i'll just keep working on it, and hopefully somehow get it. Thanx though :)

is it .gif .jpg or .jpeg because I think those are the only file types allowed. If you have anything other than that its not going to work. And did you do [IMG] the adress of the picture here [/IMG ] for your sig

[IMG][/IMG ] are the Image tags. For example:

[ IMG]www.yourimage.com/image.gif[/IMG ]

where it says www.yourimage.com/image.gif, just replace it with the url of the image you want to put in your sig.and make sure there are no spaces in the tags.

Hi again, I dont want to keep on whining and bother you guys. Thanx ScorpionX, thanx for your time and for helping. But as you can see, the pictures aint showing. I even tried your (Scropion X) banner to see if it was just me. I clicked on your banner and copied the property address, and pasted it on my sig. But it wouldn't show your pic as well. So I guess its not just me, and that what am I doing wrong? Sorry to bother you guys with this lame topic, but I hope you guys will still help me out. thanx!

Yeah my avatar is on my website, I downloaded it but the picture aint showing.

ok I ll give you an example of how to type it with my banner.

If you if you add a ] to [/IMG at the end of the example above and make it it should turn out like this
http://img2.ranchoweb.com/images/scorpionx/wolvebanner.jpg

EDIT: I looked at the url of box with the red X in your sig and there is no file extension(.gif,.jpg,.jpeg) make sure you have the correct file extension included in the url.
