    Ok, so I've just tried to change my signature and encountered a little problem. I tried to upload a new image, and when I clicked "Upload", it came up with this screen:

    View attachment 3329

    I deleted my old sig, then tried again and it still happened. Assistance required thank youuuu.

    Have you tried again since? I can't replicate the problem - The server may have been having a little bit of a hiccup.

    Yeah, I've just tried again with the same result at the end. I don't know if it's just me because Xaniith and Dragonbait tried when I was trying, and it worked fine for them.

    You've doubtless been told this before, but I'd really swap out for Firefox or Chrome. Which one is a matter of personal preference, but I'm using Firefox and having no trouble with my sig.

    It's working fine for me in IE9 too. Odd.
    IS there anything you might have disabled in IE's settings? Are you on high security or accessing it from behind a proxy or netguard?

    No problem :)
    If you wouldn't mind posting what that problem/solution was for anypony who might have a similar problem and searches the forums for it; that'd be great!

    I'm having the same problem as well, and it still didn't work on either Google Chrome or IE9

    If uploading to the site is an issue, why not try something off site. Like Photobucket.

    I've never had this issue before.

    But how would it be our signature without clicking on any links?

    You just embed it with img and [-]

    Mine is hosted off site. See, it works fine.

    EDIT: those brackets didn't even show up did they?

    I didn't know it was a gif. I can't do anything from my phone. When I get home I'll mess with it.

    I think I know the problem.

    Yes I know, it's strange, but from what I've come to understand is 403=forbidden, 404=Not Found, and 405= Bad gateway

    EDIT: I'm afraid I can't seem to replicate the problem, like the original poster, I believe this may something to do with your network configuration or browser settings?
