Signature Block

I would like to put a picture under my signature. I see a 100 pixel by 100 pixel limit. Yet I see several signature blocks with larger pictures. How are they doing it?

instead of uploading a picture, in the signature block, paste the HTML address of the signature picture (of course, this requires you to get a web-hosting picture service that allows hotlinking.)

Thanks. I did put an URL in the `Edit Profile Picture.' It still rejected it on the basis of size. I want it to appear in hte lower part of my postings below where many people list their cars, show pictures of cars etc.

Actually, it is a bit more complicated. I had asked how other users were putting in MUCH larger pictures.

You are trying to enter it in the wrong place. Go to the User Control Panel (CP) and select "Edit Signature" (not edit profile picture). You then need to paste in the URL between the Image Tags (Use [IMG] at the begining of the address and [/IMG] at the end).
