I have a feeling that many will postpone it till last moment, so don’t BHW is a gold mine why let your signature show a blank when you can rectify it asap. Ps I just updated mine so let’s go people!!!
 
signatures can't be seen on mobile phones, right?

I'm sorry, I've been away for a while, so what did I miss? do we have to have a signature or this is only for the ones who are renting their signature space?

It is not mandatory to have a signature, but if you plan to get one then follow the new guidelines
 
No Attach button is shown on my signature when trying to update my banner following your guide.

Please read the guidance as provided here

Images in signatures will need to be re-uploaded using this process https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/how-to-create-a-signature.1042239/, specifically the section entitled 'How to upload your signature banner.". Please note all Imgur signatures will be removed in the next 10 days.
 
If you opt for a banner:

Your banner must be no larger than 728 x 90 pixels. It cannot contain nudity, religious references, suggestive images or expletives, and it cannot copy other signatures on the forum. You can have an animated banner in the form of a gif, but make sure the image refresh rate is at least three seconds.

How to upload your signature banner: (effectively replacing the imgur link with a BHW one)
We removed igmur ( https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/change-log-behind-the-scenes-at-bhw.1268318/page-3#post-16340608 ) and replaced it with our own image hosting option resulting in the usual performance benefits. Please note the process to add a banner into a signature space is as below. Signatures are available to Jr. VIP, Marketplace Seller and Premium Members only.
For more info on the benefits of paid membership please visit https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/membership-levels-explained.1038219/
  1. Upload your signature image into the signature album making sure it is not larger than 728x90 pixels.
  2. Once you've uploaded your signature image grab the image link by clicking the image name
  3. It will look something like this (note it's at the bottom of the image).
  4. Take the copy image link line and place it in the insert image URL line.
5. Add any links using the usual method.

If you opt for a text signature:
you can have up to three lines of text, no bigger than size three font. In our terms of service we stipulate that signatures shouldn’t be ‘annoying’ - essentially, use colours and smileys sparingly. You could have different colours for each line, but much more than that is hard to read and ultimately looks unprofessional.

Make sure you click 'Save Changes' and your signature will appear when you next post in a thread for the first time.View attachment 253537

Thanks mate - I still think the guide is misleading
Would be interested to know how we could improve the guidance provided for adding a signature.
It's a bit confusing in this context because some of it refers to posts.

Please read the full article, I've highlighted the relevant part of the article above.

I'm sorry, I've been away for a while, so what did I miss? do we have to have a signature or this is only for the ones who are renting their signature space?

There is no requirement to have a signature, it's one of the benefits of paid membership. https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/membership-levels-explained.1038219/
