I kissed butt to get mine. The artists amongst us tend to be very nice fellows, so make them a top priority for friendship...

goodboyladdie, I don't think I've ever been to a forum with so many nice, helpful people.  It's refreshing.

Status: offline 		Well two things come to mind....

Try shrink the height down to under 200px, maybe it will accept it?

Instead of uploading it to the forum, consider uploading it to a service like imageshack and linking it from there. I do this all the time.

Status: offline 		Ok, I am going to ask on bended knee for a cool sig pic. I am hopeless with a computer. Can anyone help me out?

I would like to do one for Gramps. I am "Pacific War Veteran Fanboy", and he is "1st Lt. Mel Janssen, 41st Inf Div". I want to somehow maybe use his photo (attached), and a Piper Cub. He was a piper cub pilot. He died recently, but I think a fitting tribute to honor veterans past and present who serve.

(The picture doesn't have Lt. Bars because it's his ROTC uniform from U of I; he was Lt. Col. in ROTC).

Any help at all appreciated!
