Need some help....maybe the TERB administrators can help....

I put in a new signature (gif) a while back.....
Apparently the original page for the gif disappeared.....so my gif disappeared....

But now I'm stuck with a "Page not Found" pic and I can't get rid of it (you can see it below).....

Went to Edit Signature and tried to "select all" and "delete" but it's not working....

Anybody know what to do?

Either your source is a pic my AdBlocker wipes, or you found how to do the Edit already. If it's the latter, you might share your new knowledge, sometime after breakfast.

I have no idea how it got fixed.....

Just checked TERB and it was gone....Maybe the TERB Fairy did it.....
 
Now there's an enormous and pointless black video frame from gfycat, that doesn't show any content. Perhaps that's because it appears to be a video, not a picture, and almost a full-screen one at that. It may be that TERB's bulletin-board software requires something kinda the size and nature of a signature, a personal tag that merely signs-off the post. The post content is supposed to be the show, not the sig-pic.

You would avoid your original problem, if you used a picture you owned, or at least had posted on the hosting service yourself. I checked the Edit function with my own Settings and it seemed to operate just fine. You might consider selecting just the item you want to remove, rather than Select All which could be trying to remove who-knows-what.

Good luck.
 
Weird.....

I posted a new GIF and I can see it fine (it's a shame you can't see it because it's a beautiful GIF.....

It does take a lot of space but I have no idea on how to make it smaller....I'm not very computer savvy....as you can see I can barely handle putting a GIF in my signature...

I wonder if it's just you that can't see my GIF.....

I guess I'm gonna have to ask other TERB members if they can see my signature....
 
You can't make an image smaller until you download it to your computer. All you have done with your sig-pic is tell TERB where to go on the net to find the image you want. The shortname for that process is 'hotlinking'.

If you aren't able to do the downloading, re-sizing and then re-post to your own host site, then the only way to make your image smaller (and maybe fix the visibility issue) is to find a smaller copy, which a Google Images search might do for you.

Since gfycat makes no money from sites like TERB hotlinking to their images, it wouldn't surprise me they'd take steps to frustrate that.

PS: Since it's a sig-pic there's no straightforward way for anyone but you to see the URL of your gif. So yours may be one of the many gifs afloat around the WWWeebs that I found obtrusive and used AdBlocker to erase from my browser.
 
I lost my gif too just stopped working one day. It was time for a change any way.

Yes, I do see it, perhaps because it's now an imgur, not a gfycat. It's a much more viewer-friendly size, she is cute, and I do appreciate your effort. Thanks
