Nice! Lots of work though, it is appreciated. I myself have no artistic talents, otherwise I'd do what I could to help. Maybe I could con Youngest Daughter (she's the artist) into doing something...she does love the Mustang...

I was thinking about maybe using this as a banner background:
(the picture won't load, so just imagine a cropped photo of the Wright Bro's first flight, cropped vertically, it can be seen here)
but it doesn't really include South Carolina. Back to the drawing board, so to speak...

Artistically speaking, I like the all black one as well. The problem is, when you just glance at them all together, it doesn't pop near as much as the white text ones do. That's the overall goal pretty much is to get it to stand out at a glance, but like I said, for now, just choose any of them. We'll vote on a standard banner once we get to 25 members.

1: Right click the banner you want.
2: Choose "Save Image As"
3: Save image to desired location.
4: Upload banner from computer to online image hosting site (I like www.photobucket.com)
5: Copy the image code that is listed for the uploaded image.
6: Enter this into your signature (I'll use parentheses instead of brackets because if I use brackets it links it, so ( = [ and ) = ]). (URL=https://mustangforums.com/forum/carolina-regional-chapter-153/)(IMG)Image Code Provided By Web Image Host(/IMG)(/URL)
I've found a quicker way is to:
1. right click on the image
2. choose properties
3. at the bottom of that screen, you will see a url, probably photobucket or something
4. copy and paste that url into the image thing on your signature

Hope this helps!

Yeah that is quicker, but it doesn't make it a link. Also, I think what that does is uses my bandwidth on photobucket since I uploaded it, and if I go over the top of my alloted amount, it will delete all my photos and then it won't show up anymore.

If you notice, you can click on the banner in my signature and it will take you to the group forum home page as well.

Yeah, I actually have no clue how much bandwidth they give you on those sites...

Does anyone like the beach theme enough for me to perfect it for them?

Go to User CP on the bar at the top of the page, and then on the list on the left will have "Edit Signature". You put it in there.
