Someone can have no signature (e.g. s can be null). You need to wrap your code in a "if ( s != null) {" condition.

I change getSignature method


public String getSignature() {
String s = this.signature;
if (s.toLowerCase().indexOf("{img}")>=0 && s.toLowerCase().indexOf("{/img}")>=0) { // I use "{" here because I cannot post "[" in the forum... i am using "[" in the program actually
int startIdx = s.toLowerCase().indexOf("
int endIdx = s.toLowerCase().indexOf("" border="0" class="postimg">", startIdx) + "[/img]".length();
System.err.println(s.substring(0, startIdx) + s.substring(endIdx, s.length()));

s = s.substring(0, startIdx) + s.substring(endIdx, s.length());
}
return s;
}



And then it will error like this ...
