    Why does my new sig pic keep disappering? It disappears and says it cant be found, but then I look at the properties, copy and paste the address to my browser, and I see it. Then I go back and it shows it, but after awhile, it disappears again. Who else can't see it? What can I do?

    I have a problem with my sig too. And someone over here boasts to be a member of Anti Sig Society. Coincidence or a devious PLOT?

    Does your host allow remote linking to images? Most free hosts does not (is it a free host?), so that might be the problem. It'll always show if you copy and paste the adress into a new browser, and it'll also show a few days after, possibly due to it being cached in a folder on your computer. Then after a few days it's automatically deleted, and it'll disappear again. This was a personal experience, don't know if that's what's wrong, but it was for me.

    Or maybe it's a very unstable host.

    And if it's none of those, i'll have to go with the "devious plot" conspiracy theory.

    Everything was OK with my sigs on different forums for a LONG time and this started only a few days back. I can't even view those images in the when I log onto my provider's server.

    :evil: It must be devious plot :evil:

    Ok. We'll have to start investigating. You take the old abandoned warehouse over there, i'll snoop around the docks and find some clues. Scooby, you stay here and let us know if you spot any ghosts or suspicious people. Ready? Break!

    I want to know whether or not you can see pictures uploaded to a Yahoo briefcase. I've had luck with it before (i think :-? ), so holler if you see em.

    I see them. :eek:

    Also, I've never had a problem with my pictures, and the only reason why Notty had a problem with his, was because I renamed them, just to annoy him! :razz:

    what if we just make a joined site where we keep all of our signature pictures... this way we can keep track of it ourselves... and the sigs won't go down so fast (hopefully)

    And do you want to pay the money for it Notharah? I can't see anyone here paying for it and just letting everyone else use the space costing them the money.

    Well, if I can buy enough domain space for Vendigroth (that is, if I have enough left over after I submit all my site files) I will happily host anyone's sig pic if they want. You could e-mail it to me and I would post it at *sitename*/sigs/*signame*. I dont mind. I volunteer.
