How far have you got so far?
have you got you paypal business account set up.
There is an option to create a donate button along with an HTML code that you can copy.

In signature setup go to the view html option and paste in the code.

MikeRealy looked and looked and looked, can't find a view html option in my signature. Tried internet explorer and mozilla firefox. On the bottum in section Signature permissions the option Allow html is Off.

If rather than going for HTML, you use the unencrypted paypal donate link (it says it's for email) and then use BBCode to add that link to an image, it works well.

thebutton (YOURPAYPALURL)

I3v5y suggestion is a good one.

For info though the when in Edit Signature you'll see above the smilies an icon with a little "A" beside a big "A". That's the icon to use when swapping to HTML format.

The email link is also a lot less character intensive! :)

ok guys, I'll dive into it. Thnx!

Maybe Make the 200 character long Text into A 25 character Long "tinyURL."
