Using Imgur for hosting

Locate the "New Post" button and click it.
Then upload your image using one of the methods given.
DO NOT click the get link button here. Instead right click the image and Copy Image Link.
You should end up with a link like this https://i.imgur.com/EE65r32.jpeg
If it does not have a file extension, the link will not work correctly in the sign.

Notes

There are several signs included from the Frontier building pack, Bob's Tall Tales. These are blocked from placement unless the user owns that DLC pack.
Imgur does NOT need to be used for image hosting, it was just used as an example above. Any publically accessible site can be used, so long as the image is linked to properly. See above for details.
For new lines, use Enter or Shift + Enter or the string <br>. ie: This is a line<br>and a new line after that.

Notes 2

You can load images onto your signs from local file directories. THIS IS FOR SINGLEPLAYER ONLY!
When asked for the url, use something like the following: file:///F:\ArkLogo.png

Bugs

When reporting bugs, it is very important to include as much detail as possible. How you caused the bug? What it is? What should happen? Singleplayer? Dedicated server? PC? Console?
