    I closed my Photobucket account since it was having so many issues. I decided to open a Flickr account at the recommendation of a friend. The account is opened and an item has been uploaded (a siggy). However, I can't figure out how to post it. I clicked the share option and copied the link, posting it at the site, but all that comes up is a small icon showing an image should be posted there. Can anyone help me please? If this thread is not allowed, please help in a pm! Thank you!

    I have not uploaded a signature yet here but I have trouble with Flickr working for my CT layouts. I upload to "https://imgur.com/" for my CT layouts and it works better from there. Good Luck.

    I've started using imgur.com too. It's rather easy to use. Never had an account at Flickr, but always seemed confusing to me.

    If you're wanting to add a signature, the easiest thing to do is to load it into the gallery here at The Pad (you just need to make sure that at least 50% of the elements you've used are Pad products). You can link it from there by just copying & pasting the "Share Image" URL from its page in the gallery. If you need help after that, just tag me & let me know, and I'll try to help you further.

    Yeah, I switched to a private album on Facebook. I couldn't figure out Flickr, and figured this worked just as well!
