    Marcel,
    I tried to put there this link:
    ,but the result was INVALID FILE...
    Then I downloaded the downsized pic you sent and put it there, but it failed again...
    Strange...
    Maybe here is the problem:
    Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 500 by 100 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

    Nope, the restriction is only when uploading a pic in your siggy. When linking something, you should be able to put in larger pics, like mine. Let me try:

    Marcel,

    really don´t know what I´m doing wrong. After copying and pasting the url addres of my siggy pic it says invalid file, after copying and pasting the url address of your or Thor´s pic it says remote file is too large...
