That's because you attempted to upload your signature picture, hosted by your personal Comcast space. As the upload box in the signature states, the limit is:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 500 by 100 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).
To my knowledge, this has not been changed so this should not be a new issue. Our signature image is over that size.

That is why you received the "Remote File Too Large" error.

Top box meaning: "Option 1 - Enter the URL to the Image on Another Website"? That was what I was referring to. That is a method to upload the image. The image is taken from the URL and then uploaded to the TGO server.

That is where "remote" from the error message comes from.
