[color=red]In Boston with...[/color]


[color=blue]this caribbean soul I can barely control and Long Island's always here in my heart[/color

it drops the last ] when i save it. I cant figure out why. any ideas?

Look at my sig...as you can see it does the same here in your foruml. If i use only one color it works, but for some reason, I cant get the 2 colors to work.
any ideas?

I know it works in PHPBB, but it doesnt seem to work in the port to nuke.

The sigs only allow for X amount of characters in your sig line. Look in your forum config area and increase the amount of allowed characters.

so is there any way to incease the size of a signature files beyound 255 characters?

It would be a nice feature to have for most sites.

The field for user_sig is VARCHAR and is therefore limited to 255 characters. You would need to change that field to TEXT or BLOG.
