I moved this to forums support because it has nothing to do with your community profile page.

You need to post the link with the image codes surrounding the link...

Example;
[img]link[/img]

BTW can you downsize your avatar a bit, since it is squishing the text to the right.

From your posts, I believe that you don't have "bbcode" enabled in your forums profile. Can that be a possibility?

hallo GH213,
i've checked your settings and yes you have bbcode and HTML accepted as "yes".
what you are doing wrong is this:
--do not use "direct link" in the "signature" field (that was only for the "avatar")
--use the IMG code. in photobucket, for instance, it gives us several codes. one of which is IMG. that is the one to use!

hope that helps.. let me know if it works.. 😉
i apologize for the confusion..took me a few tries to work mine out. 😆 haha!

That is weird, I wonder why his codes are not working. His emoticons are, but not the other codes.
