Fill the field 'signature' in your profile.
Freedom is up to the length of the chain.

Where it says write in HTML code? Do I need to read a book before I'm capable of doing it?

below is a great HTML tutorial if you want to learn. Otherwise, just put regular text.

Thanks, I didn't know you could just type it but it doesn't seem to want to save my changes.
Perhaps its a bad quote

It may be a length issue. 255 characters is the maximum, i believe. Try a short one just as a test.
And make sure the 'Always attach my signature:' option is yes.

My sig didn't show up until a day after I entered it on my profile page. So it could still be in the pipeworks somewhere.

Thats interesting, Raxozanne. It has been instantaneous for me however...

Sorry I should have been a bit more specific. My sig did show up on my profile page instantly but didn't turn up at the end of any of my posts until a day later.

I just heard it last night
Shimon Peres addressing the younger generations said
"Don't be like us, be different"
I've been pondering that for the last 24 hours.

Good quote!
Raxozanne's experience may apply to you indirectly. There are two servers now and your quote may not be getting stored on either server due to a bug. That would explain why none of your changes are getting saved, and why it doesn't appear on the end of your posts. Just another SWAG, but that could be it.
