I put a photo on Photobucket site in library. Made sure it was sized (60X46). Copied the link. Pasted it in the custom avatar link box but when uploaded I get message that the link is not accessible? What am I missing?

Does the link you pasted look like mine? I forget how or which sharing link to use. My guess is use the "Direct" Link shown in the second picture.   "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

didn't work. Mine looks like yours but comes out .com/user instead of .com/albums. I'll keep trying being new to photobucket.

I'll give it a try. is this it? <IMG[url=http://s1079.photobucket.com/user/salvojimmy/media/01-04-2012%20055231AM_zpsqaxb30fj.jpg.html][/IMG] Edit- Nope I'm doing something wrong. I think you need to click on the share option but it's not available in the share box shown for your album. Hmmm! Edit- Damn Photobucket sucks big donkey balls anymore! When you hear gunshots, you know what time it is. | |||

Yep that is the photo. I think I set up sharing on photobucket correctly. Then I copied the link from the sharing box for HTML and pasted to sig avatar. Still says link not accessible.

One of our members, Woodman if my memory has not failed, is offering free hosting for avatars. A mind is a terrible thing. | |||

Did you copy the Direct Link of the picture you uploaded to Photobucket? | |||

Well, I tried again. This time when I clicked on the direct link in share, and instead of it blueing out where I used ctrl c to copy, it gave me a "copied" message. Then using ctrl v to paste into avatar, it worked. Go figure Cheers Ya'll Ted A Hamilton (aka) Salvo Jimmy Salvo NC / Hampton VA P229 (40/357) 1998 9/40/357 brls 9 mm is BarSto drop in P224 (40/357) 2013 9/40/357 brls 9 mm is BarSto custom fit | |||

One last thing, be sure the size of the picture you're using is 60 x 60. People on smart phones get affected by big pictures.
