My sig is down and I have MSN but it uses dynamic images which the board doesn't allow. What can I do?

ahhh Microsoft... you gotta love Bill Gates and his evil empire...

i like msn, but it is the only thing i have to host because my previous host froze my sig because of too many visits.

what do you mean "dynamic images"? do you mean that you're hosting them on your computer via a webserver?

 

if MSN gives you hosting (i'm pretty sure they do), you should be able to upload the same files you had on your old host onto MSN

i loaded them, but when i copy the url it tells me the board doesn't support dynamic images.

Can you just post one of the URL's you are trying to make into an image so I can review this further. Thanks.

ok, here it is.

that link doesn't point to an image.

 

make sure the images in your msn group are accessible to the public, then go open up the full image. right-click, properties, and copy/paste the URL. don't get it from the address bar at the top.

 

it might just be that it requires someone to be logged in, although at the moment, it looks like that link doesn't point to anything.

It has to have an image extension. There's no way to allow a string of letters and numbers like that. alkazoid gave some good instruction on how to do it.

msn won't give me a short extension. they use dynamic extensions, so it gives me a url, but i can't share it. oh well, i now have my sig in text form on so thank you for all the help.

What about using the DOHTML feature - wouldn't that bypass the Invision stuff?
