I thought this was the right code to make a image link to a sig, but it links to the image instead of my thread. It worked before the site update.

Whats the deal? :o

I don't think image links work too well with the new Vbulletin. I couldn't get it to work in my sig either.2010-02-25 16:27:00

We have a feature that invalidates image links in posts and instead pulls up a lightbox-esque display that allows you to cycle through all of the available images in a post. We did this for two reasons: we wanted image resizing and viewing to be much more intuitive, and we wanted to cancel out image linking so that you are forced to use text to display a link. The latter is done for consistency - images are images, and that's all they are. Links will always be found in text. It sacrifices a bit of functionality, but - believe it or not - it encourages neater post formatting.2010-02-26 00:17:00

Aww that sucks. And there are no cool fonts to use. Hmm.
I'll have to have a play around with it.

Thanks for explaining the situation.
Is there a way of disabling the image lightbox in your sig?
As image links are the standard nowdays, and I have a habit of clicking them.
