Mm.
First, this is a forums question, and I'll be moving the thread there.
Second... I'm not sure. Maybe you should try editing it and using the Yuku functions for embedding the link and formatting info?

You're using angle brackets, for true HTML, rather than square, for forum code?

That's not necessarily a problem -- I seem to recall that HTML is allowed in the sig. But he might want to try that anyway.

for images try: [img] %[link=http://example.com/image.jpg]http://example.com/image.jpg[/url] [/ img]
for links try: http://example.com/link.html Link Text [/ link]
Remove the spaces in the closing tags to get them to render properly.

If that's what you want it to look like, here's the code (take the spaces out inside of the brackets)
Code: [ img ]http://www.animecubed.com/billy/userimages/sigs/61703.jpg[ /img ]

Hey Timote?
If you click on "Account" at the top of the page, and then on "Preferences" under the settings section on the page that comes up, what do
you have selected for the editor type?
wysiwyg
bbcode
quick reply
Also, above that, do you have "Use my settings" option checked or unchecked?

*checks* currently, it's set to wysiwyg and 'use my settings' is unchecked.
Considering how often I use the quick reply, maybe I should try that. *changes setting and activates 'use my settings'*

It isn't quite working in the body, either.
I'm seeing
Quote:Be the Ultimate Ninja! Play [url=http://www.animecubed.com/billy/?TimoteBilly Vs. SNAKEMAN[url] today
with the URL being auto-converted by Yuku. (I've turned that option off for this post.)
Try replacing "url=" with "link=" in the first tag, and replace "url" with "/link" in the second tag, like so but without the spaces in the tags:
[ link= http://www.animecubed.com/billy/?Timote ]Billy Vs. SNAKEMAN[ /link ]
That should fix the link. I don't know how to fix the image; what you've got should work...
