So when do we get an NWOGEO logo ID number to use like that? :)

Look at your post above. You mean like that? I took the liberty of changing it for you because you need to use messy BBcode to accomplish it. If you want Signal the Frog instead of the GC logo, edit your sig to change bg=1 to bg=2. You will also see the text that says, "Let's Geocache". You can change that to some other short text, and put "+" instead of spaces.

The total sig can be no larger than 256 characters, so you can not add too much more with the stats button there. If you need more space there is one more trick I can use to make the button about 30 character shorter. I would need your CG digital number.

One other note. Your handle here is "TeamHydnckr" and on GC it is "Team Hydnckr". It took me a while to find you there. Had to get it from a cache!... lol. You should be able to add the space on here if you want. (Correction: You can NOT have spaces on our site) Doubt that you can take the space out at GC. (Correction: Yes you can take a space out of your name at GC. Simply change your username and everything will be adjusted properly to your new name.)

Oh yeah... here is your old sig text if you want to change it back.

I can get the button into my signature in the "my Account", "My Public Profile" area, but can't seem to get it to actually show up in the signature.

All fixed Chris.

Take a look at your profile area again to see the code that was used. I also took the liberty of using your shorter decimal user number for the 1st part of the code, rather than your long 36 character id, so that you would have a little more room to add more to the signature if you wanted.

Done!

I took the liberty of using the alternative spelling for School, so that the line would fit in the box.

You are welcome to go back and alter the text as you like! The "s" is still a little cut off.... you could change "Old Skewl" to "OldSkewl" maybe.

Hey Gizmo, I'd appreciate some help with this if you get the time. I seem to be a computer idiot at times.
Thanks.
