Here's a set of FAQs on getting pictures hosted in the gallery space you have and then getting an image into your signature.

I don't have a pretty picture like everyone else, just this stupid thing. I need to get the wife busy designing one for me!

Since I don't have one created for NAM, I just use the one I have in M2.

I did mine in photoshop. I wanted to have one based on the name of my MINI biggripper. The idea is sort of a play off of the Big Dipper constelation...but instead the Big Gripper. So my sig is a MINI shape done in stars in sort of a nebula night sky.

And here is my new one.

ImaVunDerBrah's sig is my favorite, always make me :smile: .

Mine is photoshop, MINI USA but that should change this weekend.

Great idea for a thread. We'll have to check back now and then to see it change with time!

Something I threw together with a few pictures I made. Plus I like the old Grand Prix racing from the 60's so I added the cooper from then.

Fun thread - here's mine (in the message, as well as the sig):

"those aren't grey hairs - they're racing stripes!"

Tillie - MCS BRG/W, bonnet stripes, Premium/Sport/Chrono, Silver/Space Grey, White S-Lites

I bought my car from Julie at Classic Motors in Cleveland. (Great dealer, great MA!) When the car arrived, she sent me the photos you see above. (You can still see the sticker in the window and the protective pieces on the door edges.) I reduced them, pasted them together, and put them in my sig. Great pics, love 'em, feel no need to change.

The "motto" (such as it is) refers to the streaks in this old fart's beard and temples. And "Tillie" is the car's name. (My cars tell me their names: a week before she arrived, I had a dream I was driving along a twisty mountain road, humming "Waltzing Matilda"!)

Mine currently is an action shot from the late, great MOTD '05.

It also shows a rare instance of my car actually clean.

The quote is from Rush's excellent song Red Barchetta. The song was inspired by a short story that appeared in a November '73 issue of Road and Track called "A Nice Morning Drive", written by Richard S. Foster. This somewhat prophetic story depicts a future of oversized "MSVs" or 'Modern Safety Vehicles', the drivers of which tended to push their behemoths through traffic with little regard for the smaller cars around them. Sound familiar?

A text of "A Nice Morning Drive" can be found here.

Lyrics to Red Barchetta are here

My sig is certainly not much to look at yet, arguably not worth even posting here, but ... its bound to evolve.

What software do you guys use to generate the signatures?

I remember reading about it a long time ago, but I think I would like to have a nice custom sig.:smile:

Thanks RallyMINI I really appreciate that!

I will probably forward you a couple of pics and then let you do the magic. I don't have much artistic talent, so I'll trust you with the creation of the custom sig.:smile:

Thanks again.
