Does anyone know how to center my signature image? I tried moving it over in my profile but it won't stay put.
Fix My Sig?

First, thank you guys for the adorable sig. 
Second, I had a similar problem a while back, and Cinna suggested I fix it with the BB Code Editor. When you go in to edit your sig, there is a button to the far right that looks like a page. You can remove extra coding that you can't see.

It's so frustrating because it's hard to explain, but if I was looking at it, I could fix it in like 30 seconds or less. 
EDIT: Okay, I'm going to try to explain just for others, if nothing else.
There are two ways to edit your signature. The first is the default method which is the rich text editor. When you go to edit it, you should see the images and text show up the way they do on the boards, and you can edit from there.
If you're editing this way, you should be able to click on the image. If you do, you get a popup that tells you the image link. Just close that because you don't need it. But when you close it, your signature image should still be selected.
Then where you have all your fancy editing buttons, there is one for alignment. This works for images as well as text. The button should look like four horizontal lines that are different lengths. Click it, then select the one where those horizontal bars are centered. That should, in theory, center your image.
Now the other way to edit your signature, and the method I use, is to use the bb code editor. You can get to that by clicking on the button on the far right where the editing buttons are. That'll switch you over to show you the code that makes your signature show up the way it does.
If you have your entire signature centered, all that code should begin with [*center] and end with [/center*] (but without the asterisks. I have to put them in there or it'll center stuff in this post.
In Lara's signature at the moment, the text is centered, but the image isn't which tells me that the [*center] tag doesn't start until after the image code. If you move that so that it's the first thing, it should all be centered.
