it seems to disreguard the ?'s and the .php in the IMG part of the bb code... its supposed to pull a graphic generated by another site into my signiature (and other users on my site) but doesnt leaves the blank image mark but the link works fine... any suggestions?

also i took the [ out of the tags intentionally so the code would show up...

There where bugs in forum code that have been corrected since 7.01, maybe time to upgrade.

Also I forgot to mention '?' will always be stripped from images as this can be used for inserting malicious code into the forum, or even launch viruses.

Images need to finsih with .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, etc. as the last part or else also the extension will be striped to prevent malcious files such as .exe which as an image some browsers will self execute.

With the Access versions of 7.x all you need do is replace all the files except the database.
