I didn't look through all 7 pages of the 3rd link.

Can you tell me what you mean by "signature", at the moment you have a smilie flower as your signature, but I wonder if you mean the title under your username which says "Registered User" now. :)

You are very welcome, and your Avatar looks great. Did you see my question about your query regarding changing your "signature", I wasn't sure what exactly you were referring to. :)

I acually did not see it Amie, I went back and reread and saw you did ask me what signature I was talking about. I was refering to my Name Dee.. How can I change the color. I couldnt figure out how you got your name to "sparkle and the gradiant colors.. Its really nice.

Dee, I made that signature years ago, and can't find the website now, but here are 3 more you can try. The first one has many different letters you can chose from, just type your name in the box, then click the Button. Right click on the result and Save to your computer for future use.

The second site only lets you have a sig in Pink, but you can change the font.

This one has some glitter letters.

I will keep looking for the original site. :)

Aime, I must appologize again for anwering you so slow, I do not get much chance these days to sit here like I would like.. I did check out the links and did manage to save one but can not figure out how to make it my signature. I do not see a browse there to add it in.. I will keep checking it out. Thank you for you help and patience.

Dee, we can't host signature images on MPC, due to bandwidth limits, so you have to upload it to an independent image hosting sight like Photobucket - http://photobucket.com/ which requires you to register, or fumpr - http://www.fumpr.com/ or TinyPic - http://tinypic.com/ which don't need registration.
They will all give you the code you need to copy and paste into your signature box, which can be found in your User Control Panel here (the link to User CP is on the menu bar at the top left of every forum page), under Settings & Options > Edit Signature. On TinyPic the code you need is IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards and will look like this [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/eqqg3o.jpg[/ IMG] other sites might just give you the URL for your image, in which case you will have to type the IMG brackets at the start and end of it yourself.

If you need any help with this, then please post back. :)
