The database has been migrated and the forum software has been upgraded. In addition, there has been quite a bit of cleanup in the database and on the forum.

I am having trouble posting links to Photobucket.

HTML is not allowed on the forums; is there an option for BBCode? Also, if you're using BBCode (the [img] tag is BBCode), then there is no size limit of which I am aware. The forum plays no part in the display of the image.

The reasons for this change have been stated above. If you want to use images, use [img], keeping forum rules...

Scrolling Sig

The main problem was not the size of the signature; the workaround was novel. The main problem, as stated in the U2U, was that HTML in signatures may adversely affect board layout and function. It was not meant to be enabled; it has recently been re-disabled, and thus, your signature by necessity lo...

Trouble logging out

If you cleared your cookies, then you're logged out; there's no way to maintain your session on this forum without cookies. So the only other possibility is caching.

No. The only other thing you can do is clear your cookies, which will nuke your login. Do you need instructions for your browser?
