I'll add in a "Thanks" as well.
Wasn't a big issues, so I didn't really look into it much, but I was slightly confused. I'll work on adding it into my sig when I have time at work.

I've followed several directions here and I still can't seem to update my sig. I have it down to one now playing game and I still get the "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image." Has there been yet another forum update recently? Anyone else having this problem? I'm actually just trying to remove some stuff from my sig but it won't let me submit the update of just deleting a line, pretty frustrating.

Yours looks pretty good with everything on a couple of lines.

I see your Backloggery box just fine. Now on the Backloggery site, you can add 2 more games and it will automatically include those without the forum giving you an issue. You just need to add *1* game when you first put the box in your sig here, or else it will give you that image dimension error. If it's already in your sig, you can expand it now.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I already have the box working, but when I go in to delete something else from my signature (trying to get rid of the consoles image) it throws up the warning and doesn't allow me to remove it. So I can't make any changes to my sig at the moment unless I remove the backloggery sig from it as well. I tried with the one game I have currently and I still get the error.

What steps are you taking in order to get the backloggery picture?

When I look at the picture information in FF, it says "0px × 0px (scaled to 500px × 40px)". So it seems that Backloggery is sending some crazy information for the picture. I can't edit it in the back end either.

Just to confirm, my workaround still works just fine for me. You need to get the signature in the way I said here.

Yours is properly reported as 500px × 40px FWIW.

Okay, I finally got it working. o.pwuaioc's workaround is the one true workaround. Using open image in new tab and paste in with IMG tags is the only thing that works. Using the standard Backloggery URL+IMG tags isn't working atm. Thanks for pointing out your fix o.pwuaioc.

Thanks!
It was actually harder to do than I thought. There was a lot of image re-sizing to get it to look the way I wanted. I'm afraid to touch anything now, so this signature is probably going to be permanent. :lol:
