    How to turn on the HTML code in Sigs...

    How do I do this? The links work in my posts but not in my sigs. I see in the user profile where it says HTML code is off but its not highlighted so I can't change it. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Demetrius I of Macedon was offended when the Spartans sent his court a single envoy, and exclaimed angrily, "What! Have the Lacedaemonians sent no more than one ambassador?" The Spartan responded, "Aye, one ambassador to one king."

    You can't change it. The features available are determined by the management.

    There is nothing you can do other than make your request known which you have done by posting this thread.

    IMO There is too much of an opportunity for abuse by allowing HTML code in a member's sig. I doubt if HTML will ever be turned on.
    vB code is on for your use.

    I think Kung_Fu_Fighter just wants his link to work.
    That's easy...just put this in your sig

    [url=www.badastronomy.com]link name[/url]

    the =link name part is optional and is how you use a
    name, words, or even images to represent the link. Like my sig

    Edit: You can't put images in your sig, but you can in regular posts. Fixed code

    Ah, I see now. Didn't see the distinction between HTML code and vb code. Went to the FAQ about vb code but didn't feel like reading through it all at the time. Thanks for clearing it up.
