Off Topic... why won\'t the UBB code work in my sig?

My sig should be comming up w/ two links... one to a video and the other to a pic.

Because the forum policy does not allow images in the signature, The desire was to not be like the corvette forums threads that seem to be 5% post and 95% signatures, so the ubb code is turned off.

You can put the link to the vid in your profile as your home page if you like.....

I'm not trying to post up the pic... just a link that says "Z06 pic @ VIR" and a link that says "Wanna hear it?". It won't take up anymore space... can I do this or not?

Cobra4B: I will try the links in the post message area, but they will not work in the signiture area. (Forum rules)

1st url:
Wanna hear it?

2nd url: Is not a valid url but should end up looking like this -> Z06 pic @ VIR.

Note: I was wrong about the validity of the 2nd url. Sorry, nice pic.

Solution to the 1st posting link is that you can not have any spaces in the next character spot after the closing ] barcket, which starts the link title.

So characters need to touch both the ending & beginning ] [ brackets for the link and title to work correctly.

Example: [ url=http ]text text text[ /url ] I have added spaces inside of the brackets to "break" the code so that they mayt be displayed her for viewing.
