Something I just noticed about this forum changing signature changes all prior posts. Thats not very good. I you give and answer or post a question, and later you should upgrade and update your post someone else might think that is the way to do it for the incorrect version.

Having written BB software (no, not in WebFOCUS Smiler) I would guess that the signature is pulled from the User record each time it is displayed - that's the method I use anyway, purely from a space point of view.

It shouldn't be a problem to write it to the individual posting, but would obviously require a change in the BB software. Whether the Forum's EVE software is that flexible? Only Kathleen and Kerry will be able to tell us.
