    They can be a bit awkward.

    Well I want to change it to "Loopy's Bankruptcy Journey" and I can't change my sig because it says BB code size value is too big.

    Done the first bit. ;)

    The signature editor only allows you a certain number of formatting characters along with the actual text.

    Click the switchmode.gif button when editing your signature to see those.

    Too be honest, it's often best to start with a signature from scratch.

    Awwww you helped me sooooooo much. This time last year I'd just got home from court and I was feeling all kinds of things. This year I am sitting here with a towel on my head getting ready to go to my friend's and I am so HAPPY. I don't think people understand what BR is like unless they've been through it. It's awful but coming out the other side is brilliant! x
