HTML, images, links in email signatures

I am trying to add hyperlinks to website addresses inside my email signature.
I am also trying to add a Skype status button to my email signature. You can see the code it generates from this page:
http://www.skype.com/share/buttons/wizard.html
I have read older guides on how to create webarchives via BBEdit and Safari. I tried that but did not have success with the image showing up and the hyperlinks I added in did not work.
Is there an updated tutorial for editing signatures in html for Leopard?
I am using Mail 3.0

This is how I've found a way of doing:
Go to home/library/mail/signatures select all the files in there
Go to preferences in Mail and create a new signature
In the home/library/mail/signatures you will see a new file *.webarchive
Open your html signature with Safari
Go to File/Save as ... Save as over the new *.webarchive choosing webarchive for the format
Restart Apple mail if you need to
(for the images you will need to have them posted on a server)

Creating a linked image in your email signature

Since you cannot add a URL link to an image directly in the Prefs/Signature window, do the following:
1. Open a new message window. Paste (or drag & drop) any suitable image. Highlight it.
2. Go to Menu>Edit>Link>Add... and type or paste your URL link.
3. Go to Preferences>Signatures and copy & paste the new linked image, along with any other info.
4. Assign your new signature to your account(s).
In my case, my email signature includes a "View my profile on Linkedin" button that people click on to go there.

I use this method:

Links on email signature

I forgot how to add a link to my website to my email signature.

It would be best if you used HTML to guarantee the conversion to a link. The auto conversion actually depends on the program viewing the email message, I believe. So, to make an HTML signature, see this hint: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050706181449478

Fixing Link in Email Signature

One of the links (Facebook) I use in my email signature gets corrupted when I send mail and is wrong on the recipient's end. How can I fix that? I've re-checked the link in Mail Preferences and it is the correct one. Thanks!

This seems to work, it prompts the user to allow their web browser/client to allow the action to proceed, but it does work: <a href="skype:SKYPENAME?add">SKYPENAME</a>
Just replace SKYPENAME with yours.
If editing in Word, or similar, the link you want to add is just skype:SKYPENAME?add the above is the actual HTML that makes it work.
CORRECTION: only works in html, but Gmail strips it out by the looks of it, which is disappointing!

Blocking html images in iPhone emails?

Anyone know how to get iPhone to block the html images in emails so that I don't broadcast to spammers that I was stupid enough to open their email junk?

There are no settings to control such a feature at this time. If you don't know who the email is from, don't open it.

Ios7 I want to include an image in my email signature. How?

I have been trying to add an image to my signature on either my iPhone or iPad. Settings/mail/signature does show what I want, but only the text shows on an email aging with a very small square. I have tried many image sizes and formats. Any ideas?

With the native mail app, you can't (text only). you might check the App store for some alternate mail apps that might support this.

Can i embed html code into my email signature

I am trying to create a e-mail signature that includes an image as well as html code. I have no idea how to get this done. Help!

Are you referring to use of content within a content ?
You can use any composition or panel to achieve this, but if you are referring to use html content to another html content , then you would need to work out with the code and combine them and then insert on page so that both html functions properly.
Thanks,
Sanjit

My image in my email signature in Mail is resizing and becomes a lot smaller. According to the Graphic Designer, it's a Mail problem? Help!

I have a business account and use a signature in Mail. Currently I copy and paste the words from a .docx and then copy and paste the image into the signature. I've just changed my picture and at first when I started typing an email and hit 'enter' the image would resize to smaller (about half the size). Some test emails to a bigpond email showed that the picture was showing up as an X.
I readded the picture and in the signature in Preferences, it seemed the right size. But when I send a test email, the image is back to being small again.
This is really frustrating me - I hope someone can help!

check that pictures in mail are of actual size

Adding a logo or image to a email signature

What is the best file format to use as an image that will be most universal?
.ai
.eps
.jpg
.pdf
.tif
??????

Out of this list, I would recommend jpeg...
Other files format are definitley not supported by most mail apps (even web browsers).

What is the best way to add multiple images with links into an email signature?

I created an email signature with five linked images by:
* creating new message
• attached the image
• adding link to the image
• copied new email signature
• under Preferences/Signature added the new signature
It all works, but some of the emails bounced back. When we removed the images, the email went through.
I tried putting all the images into Photoshop and making it all one image, used the slice tool to create a link for each image and brought that single image into the signature, but that didn't work as separate links.
Any suggestions?

Hi Bob.
So what I should have done on my PC for all my files is gone to the File menu and used the Package command which would have converted it into a file with the images in it so they wouldn't need to be relinked.
From now on I will only be working on Mac (I gave away my PC) but I'm sure I could use a friend's pc (or at a later point install Windows on my Mac). But to use the Package command on PC I need to actually have the images in the correct folder on the PC right?

Adding logo or image to email signature

I have added my logo (a jpeg image) to my email signature. When I send an email to someone else who is using an Apple mail program it opens up fine. However, when I send an email to someone who is using, for example, a yahoo mail account, the logo does not show up on the actual email, it shows as an attachment that must be clicked on to open.
Does anyone know how to embed an actual logo/image onto an email signature so that it will be seen in an email regardless of what type of email program they are using without having to click on it? thanks

Jessie,
I would love to help you (and anyone else in your situation), but it seems I can't duplicate your problem. I read your post before going to work this morning, and I sent myself an email (from Mail at home to Lotus Notes at work) with a signature containing a JPEG. Notes, arguable the worst email client out there, showed the JPEG in-line.
I don't have Outlook or Outlook Express, so I cannot test those, but I'd be happy to receive an email from you so I can see what comes across. You need to send it to my work email because that's the only place I have an email client other than Mail running. The address is dkiechle followed by an @-sign followed by amadeus.com.
We can do the opposite as well: I can try to send a test email to one of the addresses that you used to see if my signature shows up with the graphics element in-line. Would be pretty instructive, I think. I can do this if you provide an address; however, I can only do it in a few hours from home as I don't have Mail here at the office.
One interesting thing to check: in Mail, there's an option to "Always send Windows-friendly attachments". Can you check if it is enabled or disabled in your configuration of Mail?

Dynamic Image As A email Signaure

Good Day All.
I have the following code the will randomly get an image from a folder.
It works Great.
Now what i would like to do is add that image as an inline image in my email signature.
eg
<img src="http://websiteadd/getsingle.cfm">
However this does not work.
here is the code of the CFM page.
<cfset imagesFolder = "#dirlocation##dirspace#images#dirspace#stock#dirspace#temp" />

<cfdirectory directory="#dirlocation##dirspace#images#dirspace#stock#dirspace#temp" filter="*.jpg" name="getPics" action="list"/>
<cfset maxrows = getPics.recordCount/>
<cfset startRow = randRange(1, maxrows)/>

<cfif maxrows gt 0>
    <div class="showPic">
    <cfoutput query="getPics" startrow="#startRow#" maxrows="1">
<cfheader name="content-disposition" value="attachment; filename=#name#.jpg" />
<cfcontent file="#dirlocation##dirspace#images#dirspace#stock#dirspace#temp#dirspace##name#" type="image/jpg" />
        
    </cfoutput>
</cfif>
Is there anyway to do this.
Regards

If your IMG tag always shows an image, then any HTML email sent via CFMAIL should work fine, BUT (and it's a big BUT) you have no control over the client who receives the email. They may refuse HTML emails, or they may block IMG tags (for privacy concerns). When you said "However this does not work" what did you mean? Please explain.
Creating a HTTP connection from the email to the image is also undesirable. It's probably better to embed the image, like this using a "data:" URL:
<cfset ImgFile = "d:\somefolder\images\myimage.png">
<cfset ImgHeader = "image/png;charset=utf-8;base64">
<cfset ImgData = ToBase64(FileReadBinary(ImgFile), "utf-8")>
<cfoutput>
<img src="data:#ImgHeader#,#ImgData#" alt="sig">
</cfoutput>
The data: URL includes the actual image within the IMG tag, so no outbound HTTP request to the image is required.

Can you wrap an image with a link in an html email signature?

When I cite a remotely hosted image in an html signature, and try to make that image a link, the link is ignored and the just the image is shown.
e.g.:
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ubiquia/146019678805381" target="_blank">
<img style=" position:absolute;
height:30px;
width:30px;
left:172px;
top:157.5px"
src="http://png.findicons.com/files/icons/2779/simple_icons/48/facebook_48_black.png" alt="ubiquia facebook" moz-do-not-send="true"
>
</a>

For each icon that you want to use in your email signature:
locate icon on internet webpage - right-click on the icon and select 'Save Image as'. Save the icon to your computer in a suitable file.
Then in Thunderbird
insert > Image
choose file - locate the saved icon on your computer
click on Link tab and enter the www etc webpage link info
click on OK to insert image with link.
Codewise, where you have the actual icon you would need something stating where the icon is located:
eg
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ubiquia/146019678805381" target="_blank">
path to image saved on computer included in within <> </a>
