Your [Donate] link shows up just fine. (You can't see it because you can't donate gold to yourself.)
I can't help you with the signature because I've never bothered to buy one. |

there's a sig feature in profile...look further down the page...then, I forget if this site requires a certain "rank" before that privilege...yes, it's been that long.
people do donate, but they're usually nuts! _________________

Maybe there are a few crazies out there...
Perhaps I should try a different browser. I use firefox pretty much. Unless I have to achieve a certain rank, then I will have to wait my turn.
Thanks a lot for the help. |

You will have to go into the shop and buy the signature option. It's only a small amount of gold and is attainable after a post or 2. _________________

Yes, well, thank you, but I did buy the signature option along with the avatar. I just can't figure out how to use it.

take a look at the top of the page when you're in the forum, just above the thread title you should find a menu bar with among other the menu option "profile". Click that one, find the correct space showing signature, type the info you want in your signature in that field and make sure to click the "attach signature" option when you post. That should have you set _________________ HaP! Real Pirates hang out there! |

*Grabs head in both hands pulling hair, running toward mizzen-mast to bang head* Aaaaaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhh!!!!
Okay. I was in the profile screen and took a screen shot of what it is that I am seeing, which does not include a signature screen. After bangin' me head on the mizzen-mast so many times maybe I will discover that I really am on the wrong page. I cleard my cache and deleted my cookies and here is what I got:
So there it be, sirs. Am I really on the wrong page? It wouldn't be the first time a simple solution was right there and I overlooked it.
I guess it's really not that big of a deal as I don't have anything all that interesting to say, just the loss of 50 gold.

Have you tried logging in and out? For seem reason it doesn't work quite the same way if you set your log in to "log in automaticly on each visit." It worked for me when I couldn't see the signature option as well. _________________

Good suggestion Quinton.
If Quinton's suggestion doesn't work for you then let me know and we can ask Falconer to look into it further.
If everybody else has a signature you should have the option as well. Don't worry we'll get it going for you. _________________

I can't post a sig either or use an weblinked avatar. After buying both options, I futzed around with them with no luck. I could get a pirate avatar to show up, but not my web one. Then I went into the vanity store and "removed" the avatar thinking I was just "turning it off". Imagine my surprise when it removed the sig but didn't allow me to turn it back on without re-buying it!
I also have bought the signature option, but there's nowhere to enter a sig on the profile screen.....
I have tried logging in/out and clearing my cache.
Fair Winds to ye,
Cap'n Langod, the Confused Pirate
Edit -- I just went in and re-bought the avatar, but as you can see, I can display the pirate avatar, but my weblinked avatar -- a painting of a frigate -- doesn't display. |

Logged out, then logged in and out and in again on both IE 6 and Firefox to the same results. Oh, and what is the difference between the avatar in the profile section and the pirate avatar that has its own link to click? |

Once you choose the pirate avatar, I'm afraid you're stuck with it - there's no way to go back. It's a bug in the forum software. More info in this thread:

That is correct. Once you take the nul avatar as its called you can't then change to another avatar unless you contact Falconer. He can then reset the avatar and get rid of the pirate.
As far as the signature goes, I'm fresh out of ideas. I would suggest that you both mail Falconer with the problem with details on the problem.
He designed this forum and he will be able to straighten it out for you. _________________

Made some changes, let me know if you can add your sig now loganshackett, should work now.
NulAvatar... well, remind me when I'm not about to go to bed (Read: tired as hell, I'll take care of it soon but if I forget, PM me again) |
