   I want to be able to add a signature to the end of all of my blog posts but NOT doing it manually. I would like it to just automatically show up below the post. What code and where do I put this? Please leave detailed instructions. Thanks!

   where exactly do you want the signature?

   - after the content?

   try to add a filter to functions.php of your theme; something like:
   

   add_filter('the_content','add_signature');
   function add_signature($text) {
   global $post;
   if($post->post_type == 'post') $text .= '<div class="signature">my signature text; could be a html image tag as well</div>';
   return $text;
   }

   - after the line 'posted in:... '?

   you would need to edit index.php and single.php (and the other template files where you want to have the signature; http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy )

   find the line with 'endwhile;' of the loop;
   add the signature code, for instance <div class="signature">my signature text; could be a html image tag as well</div>, just before this line.

   always make a backup copy of your theme files before editing

   you can add formatting for the signature into style.css, for instance using the example code:
   .signature { ... }
