The Photography section is intended for members to post photos so I've moved your post to Jaguar Forums Advice / Feedback & Suggestion Center section.
The problem you are having with uploading a SigPic is probably that the image you are trying to use exceeds the permitted size size limits.

It mustn't exceed 500 x 100 pixels or 9.8 KB.
To get it within these limits, you'll need to resize it with photoediting software. Post a reply if you don't have this available or still can't get it to upload.

It should appear with your next post.
To set up a forum 'garage' and add full size photos:
1. on the main menu bar, go to Photos and click on Garage

2. in the next screen, click on Add new vehicle

3. in the next screen, fill in the basic details about the vehicle

5. browse to the picture file on your computer that you want to upload

Definitely worth adding a full size photo of the Cadillac. It looks superb.

Bernie,
I use Photoshop so hadn't though about how resizing could be done without a program like this. Surprisingly I found it can be done using Windows Paint.
1. open Paint from Start - All Programs - Applications
2. open the JPEG photo you want to resize
3. copy and past the image into Paint
4. click on the Resize button
5. in the dialogue box, set the required Percentage or Pixel size.
![Help. How to put photo in signature and garage ??-pic-3.jpg](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/attachments/jaguar-forums-feedback-suggestion-center-18/48226d1480968979t-help-how-put-photo-signature-garage-pic-3.jpg)
With the Maintain aspect ratio box ticked, only adjust either Horizontal OR Vertical and the other will automatically change to keep the ratio the same.
6. click OK
7. save the new image with an appropriate filename
So you and Sir William Lyons are both from Lytham. I think his original Swallow Sidecar building is still there unlike his Jaguar factories in Coventry.
