Teh Rulz.

Right click on the image and select "Copy Image Location", or something similar. Then, in your control panel, paste that URL into the box.

No joy Aidan! Im given the option when I right-click the image of 'Copy' and 'Copy Shortcut' then if I choose either of those and paste into the URL address about 7 or 8 lines of letters and numbers appear on the screen. Maybe the pic is too big?

Wow.

Wel, wasted-days.com doesn't exist anymore. As well as that, pulling images from a image search page is not a good idea. You should follow the link to the page and get it there instead.

If I interpret that right.

Great...you broke word wrap. :v:

First get the picture you want to use onto your PC, then "host" it on the web by uploading it to a service like imageshack or photobucket. Then go to the My Signature link in your UserCP and put the web address of the uploaded file inside image tags like this [img]http://www.WHATEVER.com/coolpicture.jpg[\img] and save. Alternatively you can just leech the picture if it's already on the web, from there, using the same method... Keep it small and no animated ones...or mods will delete all that hard work...[/img]
