Copy my sig and fit your pic on to it then put it into whatever image hosting site you have an account with.
Copy the img link of your sig pic from your account and paste it into your sig.

You dont even need to use TPU software, you can just import it from your HDD.

I don't know any other way.
I just took a sig and created one in photoshop the same size, then added it to my photobucket account.
There is other places like Image shack too.
Took the IMG link from there and pasted it into the sig space.

This brings back memories of trying to teach my ex's Father how to use a PC.
I showed him how to do what he wanted.
But it was just easier for me to do it for him.
