It's good to hear that you fixed it, but what was wrong? I've considered adding a sig link to MacNN Personal pages, so users could just copy the link and paste it into their sigs.

i had one of the very first links somethin like:
http://teammacnn.com/sig(insert number here).php
thats not exact but it is similar i just upgraded it.
personally something like an extra link in the folding section or a link in a sticky here to take the user to a list of all of the team members and their personal link for the sig pic would be an idea. then it is a simple copy and paste + it would be easier to implement wouldnt it?

Ah, you had one of The Exceptions Folding sig links, one of the few and proud. A most excellent race, congratulations once more to the old timers who won.

Those links were abandoned in favor of a more generalized link that didn't require a separate file to be set up on the server for each member. I'd warned people to switch over to the newer link and that the old ones would be turned off in a couple weeks - then I forgot to turn them off.

Something like a month or more ago, I noticed the forgotten sig files and removed them.

hang on a sec if my personal area in the team is this link: http://team.macnn.com/users.php?mode=profile&uid=46

then surely in the sig link i put in uid=46 which i have done but its the wrong person?

[reader50]

I'd wondered why you were 'biff' in the stats.

Don't use the UID from the team website, use your UID from teamstats, where your personal page is here.

That gives a sig url of:
http://teamstats.macnn.com/fold/sigs/UID=353/sig.php

The UIDs are different because teamstats uses a separate database from the team site.
