Do you mean the signature? Cause it's just a small block you specify under "User CP" in your settings. It can include text, images, whatever. <strike>Mine is just a image.</strike> Edit: I changed it.

Well, to edit your signature, you just click on "User CP", then "Edit Profile". There's a field where you can type in the info you want the signature to include.
Then when posting, make sure the checkbox labeled "Show Signature" is checked.
If you want to have a picture of your car in your signature, first you'll have to get the picture of your car on the computer (digital camera is fastest, but Kodak gives you the option to get a CD with your pictures on it when you develop film, or you could scan it yourself, if you have a scanner).
Then you can edit the pic, add text, whatever, in a picture editing program (PhotoShop is popular, but a little pricey and complicated, I use the equally capable Paint Shop Pro. Heck, even you could even use Windows Paint).
Now you have to find a server on the web to host your pic so other people can see it. My signature is hosted at WebShots (http://www.webshots.com/). Note: you can't host your signature on Yahoo! or GeoCities free services, because they prohibit it (it won't work).
Once you upload the pic, navigate to its location on the web, right-click on it and choose "properties" from the menu, so you can see the pic's address. Then include that pic's address in your signature enclosed in [img]..[/img].
I know this is a kinda lengthy answer, but I wanted to make sure I covered all the bases.
