I was trying to update my signature and embed an image. The embed code counts against your character limit which sucks cause it blocks me from using Google Drive or OneDrive link as the urls aren't shortened. Any workaround? Or can character limit be removed for the embed code?

Hmm okay. I'm already premium, not sure having a little image in my signature is worth it. Already feel raped by Photobucket trying to charge me $6.99 to host my image thus I was trying other options. I kinda like the image with X. Might stick with it. ;)

As a premium member here on Snowest you should have NO need of photobucket as you have your own photo album included in your membershio

That's cool I didn't even know. But when I try to insert picture from the signature editor it only gives me option to put a linked image in.
