    Okay, I am having a bear of a time explaining this because what I'm writing will not show up on the post! :P

    I will spell it out...
    Copy the url into your signature box then at the front of the address add a square left facing bracket [ followed my the letters img followed by a square right facing bracket ] with no spaces at all.
    At the end of the url add a square left facing bracket followed by a forward slash / followed by the letters img followed by a right facing bracket, again no spaces at all.

    When I copy and paste the url with these add ons the banner shows up. Go figure :)

    If this doesn't work, it's time to call in Gary!

    Ok folks, I'm really pumped up about this challenge and the healthy lives we are building. My main interest is that we all get into great shape physically and mentally. So when we get through this we will have a lasting connection (in my mind at least) reaching this together. So whatever the challenge is think in terms of our community. Saints and Slimmers! Daily challenge coming up.
