Well, the code you're using at the moment is a bit confusing.

Quote:

It has resulted in this signature:

Quote:
My 2014 Goodreads reading challenge. http://="https://www.goodreads.com/u...enges/1641686"
Simply using this code:

Quote:
My 2014 Goodreads reading challenge. [URL]https://www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/1641686[/URL]
Would result in a tidier signature:

You could add an image using the [IMG][/IMG] tags:

My 2014 Goodreads reading challenge. [URL]https://www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/1641686[/URL]
Which would look like this:

Quote:

Of course, you could link to the image itself. This:

Would produce this:

Or you could link the text AND graphic. This:

Would produce this:

Whatever you decide to do, remember the signature limitations as outlined in our Guidelines:

Spoiler:
9. Avatars, Images and Signatures

...Signatures are required to be discreet and unobtrusive. The total height of a signature must not exceed 100 pixels (six lines of default size text), and the width must not exceed 600 pixels.

Discreet, non-animated graphics are allowed in signatures, within the overall signature size limits. Ideally signature graphics should be uploaded to MobileRead.

Advertisement and promotion unrelated to eBook and mobile reading in a signature must be limited to only one line of non-bold default size text.


And, finally, if you're in doubt as to whether the signature you've created exceeds the allowable height and width, you can always use my own signature as a guide. I've deliberately sized it to 600 x 100 pixels for that very purpose.
