I just worked out it is the browser caching the old version of the signature image. Press ctrl-F5 to force a page refresh and you'll see the image change. I see a Sidewinder on the left side of your signature image now.Maybe I have to wait the 'hour or two', as they suggest, for it to change.

CTR-F5 changes nothing. If you look at my post #159 you will see the image does show the Sidewinder on the left-hand side but the BBCODE remains unchanged and when copied to produce a signature at the forum, only reproduces the original signature.

Do you see the "Sidewinder" image signature at the Forum? 
Because I don't .......
Because I don't ....... Frustrating ........
I see this:
Something between you and the website servers is caching the old version of the image by the looks of it. Home internet connections don't normally have proxy servers - just direct to the ISP. But proxy servers can sometimes cache images, or maybe your internet service provider is.
If ctrl-F5 has not fixed it, whatever is caching the old image will expire the cache and let you see the new one eventually, even if it means 7-30 day wait as an example.

Your sig looks fine to me. Sidewinder pic, etc. It does take time to change on the forums. I've had my portrait take several days to finally work for everyone. Don't sweat it too much. It's not like anyone looks at those anyway, really. I know I just ignore them (unless we're discussing one like now!).
Right ........ not up with the technical terms but no trouble understanding what you mean. And it's no really big deal.I see this:

Ha! Exactly! However the funny thing is in CMDRQuainMarln post #162, he reproduces what he sees ........ and it's the signature I want to see, the one with Sidewinder!!!!
It's only me seeing the wrong signature ......... you're also seeing the updated one!!!! ......... you all must think I'm bloody mad ...... or blind!!!! 
So just to show you I'm not bloody mad ..... or blind, here's what I am seeing:
Right ...... let's leave all that absolute boring stuff regarding signatures and get back to ED missioning. I'm about to make two deliveries missions in line with Quain's suggestion. Wish me luck.
Don't think you are mad at all. I've been involved with website development technologies of one sort or another for 21 years and this situation is one of those things that happens from time to time. Give it a few days and you'll probably see the new signature image.So just to show you I'm not bloody mad ..... or blind, here's what I am seeing:

In some places Imperial factions offer a stack of data courier missions all to the same place. You can have reputation (Rep+++) gain instead of credits as a reward. I frequently stacked the maximum 20 missions to boost my reputation as fast as possible to achieve the rank of Duke in the Imperial Navy. I'm now "allowed" to spent 1.2 billion credits on a fully kitted out Imperial Cutter. I just need another 500,000 credits and a return trip to the bubble to take advantage of it someday....Right ...... let's leave all that absolute boring stuff regarding signatures and get back to ED missioning. I'm about to make two deliveries missions in line with Quain's suggestion. Wish me luck.
If you choose some Rep+++ rewards, you gain reputation with the faction(s) and they will usually offer more lucrative data delivery and other missions.
I'm getting dropped out of FSD Supercruise way before I reach the chosen destination. Sometimes an emergency drop all because, as they tell me: "I'm too close to something". Any ideas? Thanks.
Thanks.
Yes, give it a few hours to update. I made a few changes to mine last night and it has only recently updated on here.Maybe I have to wait the 'hour or two', as they suggest, for it to change.
Glad you got it working.
Yep I see it too. Maybe clear your browser's cache.Do you see the "Sidewinder" image signature at the Forum?
Yes ....... thanks. All makes sense now. Although, I would have thought it laughable that I can have two signatures on the Forum at the same time: one that you all see and one that only I can see ......
It's only 1.89Mm away and 3:15:33 in terms of time. I assume that means 3 hrs, 15mins and 33sec. Just don't understand what the problem is .......I'm getting dropped out of FSD Supercruise way before I reach the chosen destination.

Well ...... I've arrived and landed safely. But I've forgotten how I deliver what I was carrying. It was just computer stored data, so it shouldn't be hard to do .......

Thanks. It was the first place I headed for on docking. But I misunderstood what I found. I thought they were just showing me only available jobs. Not completing the jobs that I had to finish. All clear now. Pick up a cool 55 000 credits. Not much but a start. Refueled, small repair and I'm ready to go again.
