Apparently its not allowed in postings either since the pic didnt show in my post.

Why have it in the faq if we can’t use it?

Actually, you can include an image in your post, as so many people have done in the forums. If you need to illustrate anything with the use of an image, you may attach an image to your post.

What is to stop someone from just copy/pasting their image tag every time they make a post then? Thus circumventing the “you can’t use an image as your signature”. All you are doing by preventing it in the signature is making it tougher, not impossible, to use an image as your signature. True?

Also I believe the original poster is correct. Images are not working at all. See my example below:

I think he means you can upload an image like this. I actually like this rule, it prevents people from spamming up the forums with useless crap like xbox account signatures.

But, shouldn’t the codes work in everything on the site? I know a site, which has similar codes. The sites name is ‘Crunchyroll’ and they even have a list of codes, which, arenanet seems to base their codes off from. But, either or. The codes should work in every section of the site. If I cannot just make a post, with out clicking the ‘attachments’ and just adding the right coding to the post, which should allow a picture to appear. Then it should work, If I cannot make a post/ signature with your coding and not have the coding showing. Then the problem is within the code and then the question ‘’what is the reason to even keep a code that doesn’t work?’’ comes to mind after. Now, before people bite my head off, just look at their layout for codes and they work in ever section of the site (profile, postings, and extc): http://www.crunchyroll.com/help?topic=bbcode

These forums use standard BBCode and Textile. However, some features have been turned off purposely. For example, colored or resized text and inline images are disabled on these forums. It’s not that the code doesn’t work, it’s that it has been purposely disabled.

I just wanted to show off my nifty signature minus an attachment every time I put together a post. But I understand where you are coming from.
