Default How do I set up a Signature?

I've looked all throught the control panel, and I cannot find a way to set up my signature. Do I need to reach a certain number of posts before I get this ability? Or am I looking in the wrong place?

Thanks,
~Rae

That post only talks about having LINKS in your signature not how to set up a signature. Unless that information is hidden deep in the pages, I didn't see it.

I made this thread a while back:

On the left side navigation panel, the top option is 'Edit Signature.' Click there.

Add a personalized signature. But keep the signature down to a total of 4 lines Max (as forum rules state) -- this is just so signatures don't get out of hand and get bigger than the posts.

I don't have the "Edit Signature" option. Maybe I have to wait a certian amount of time or post a certain number of times to get that option.

You may need to wait until you have 15+ posts and hae been a member for at least a week. Just keep hanging out on the forums and contributing to the discussions and then you should be able to insert a signature.

Thant is correct. You can't place in a signature until 15 posts have been made. Apologies on that, but it greatly reduces the amount of spam we receive.

I think that you need to be a member for at least one week in addition to having at least 15 posts.

Actually, I can have a signature now. It just took awhile for the option to switch on I guess.
