Remember that if you’re embedding an image from a remote site, the recipient may have to enable images from your email address before they can see your logo. Now, when you compose a new message, your custom HTML signature will already be inserted.
Make sure Use HTML is checked and click OK.
In the box below Signature text, paste your HTML code. Press CTRL-A and then CTRL-C to copy the raw HTML code to your clipboard. This will show a dialogue box with the raw HTML code for the signature you just created. Once you have your signature just the way you like it, click Edit and choose Select All (or press CTRL-A on your keyboard). I don’t recommend attaching the source of the link to the message. Type in the destination URL and click OK. To create a hyperlink, highlight the text you want to use as your anchor text, click the Insert button, and choose Link. You’ll also probably want to include a link. You can also add alt text and tooltip text if you’d like, or you can select Don’t use alternate text to forgo this. If you’re attaching your image, you can browse for it by clicking Choose File… If you’re using a remote image, copy and paste the location into the Image Location field. But once you start emailing someone regularly, they can start accepting remote images, so really, that’s only an issue for your first message.Īnyway, to insert an image, click the Insert button in the formatting toolbar and click Image. The drawback of that is that, by default, most web clients block remote images. I don’t really like that, so I usually opt for the remotely hosted image. But the real drawback is that your recipients will never know if you actually sent them an attachment other than your signature image. This’ll add a few KBs to your file size, which may or may not be an issue for you. If you attach it, then every single email you send out will have your signature image attached. There are two ways to do this: attach it or embed an image on a web server. If you’re pretty enough, you could even include a headshot, but lookin’ good isn’t really my department, so I’m going to use a logo. Personally, I like to include an image in my signature. Make everything just like you want it to look in your signature. Type out your signature and format it using the formatting toolbar in the composition window.
We’re not actually sending an email here we’re just using this message as a workspace. Create a new blank message in Thunderbird by clicking Write.
