Default OT-Attachments and Sig Pics

I posted in the Site Help forum but I'm getting nowhere fast.

I was away from the site for a while due to hunting season, work, etc. I now find that A-although I uploaded a sig pic it will not display in my posts; B- I can only attach one pic and if I try to attach another one in a different thread I have to delete the previous one; C- there is no list of smileys, or a taskbar with fonts, colors, bold/italic/underline, etc when I make a new post.

Is this the same for everyone and if not, how do I get back to the way it once was?

do a little research on BB-code, its like a dumbed down version of HTML.

if you use FireFox then you can use this plugin https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/128

and heres somewhere to start some research on it http://www.cavyspirit.com/thoughts/s...GB&vgbedocbb=0

So, are you saying that's just the way it is now? You can't post links to pics and there is no taskbar anymore? If so, when (and why, if anyonme knows) did that change?

Any idea about the sig pic? I can plainly see that they work for others.

For the sig pics, get a photobucket account. Photobucket.com, host your pictures there, then get the image codes found underneath photos when you scroll over them in your photobucket album.
As far as why the change, I believe they upgraded forum software, and it doesn't support the old things.

I've uploaded pics from my PC and from Photobucket. The both display in the Sig photo set-up, but not in any posts.
