Default My signature on e-mails

I would like to scan my signature and include it in e-mails and letters in
Works. I've tried doing it but have failed on three occasions. Anyone
managed to do it successfully?

Default My signature on e-mails

Hi Nina,

I had the same problem, but now have my scanned signature "inserted" into
E-Mails perfectly, thanks to the following, thanks to Steve Cochran:

"Copy this code:

HTML
BODY
IMG src="file://c:\myimages\myimage.jpg"
/BODY
/HTML

and paste it into a new Notepad window. Edit the src value to represent the
full path to the image you saved. Then save the file and give it an htm
file extension. Then click on the file to open it and verify that the image
is displayed (if its not, then the path to the image in the src is incorrect
and you will need to fix it).

Then use that file in OE as your signature for HTML formatted messages (it
will not work for plain text).

steve "

Good Luck.
Andy I.

Default My signature on e-mails

The easiest way to save in Notepad is to Save As and put the name in quotes,
"signature.htm".

Thanks for that. If that's the easiest way I dread to think what the
difficult way is. Sorry it's way too complicated for me. I won't bother.

Hi Nina,

Don't despair! If you wish you can scan your signature, send it to me
(E-Mail, not NG) and I'll prepare the .htm file which you can then use as
your signature.

Nina,
There is no reason to send Andy your signature.
Andy doesn't know where on your hard drive the signature jpg is stored.
The signature jpg is not inserted into the email, just the location.

If you try to Save As in Notepad and don't put the file name in quotes, you
must change the file type to All Files.
If you don't change the file type, your htm file will be .htm.txt .

Andy's instructions should have included this:
Then save the file and give it an htm file extension. Change the file types
to All Files.

Or
Then save the file. Locate the file and change the .txt file extension to
..htm .
