Create e-mail signatures with text and images

Thunderbird

Instead of a signature that just
contains the sender details, it’s
possible to create a sophisticated
signature with an image or logo.

Signatures with logos lend your emails a more

professional feel.

Thunderbird supports text-based
signatures, but if you need images to
go with your signature, you will have to
code it as an HTML fi le. You can use the
Word editor to arrange your image and
text settings. Save the fi le as a webpage.
Next, open Thunderbird, ‘Tools | Account
Settings’. Next, select the e-mail account
to add the signature. Now, select the
‘attach the signature from a fi le instead’
and select the created HTML fi le. For this
to work, make sure that the messages
are being sent in HTML format. To enable,
click on ‘Composition & Addressing’ on
the left. Enable the ‘write messages in
HTML format’ option and click OK.If your image is not showing up in the
signature, you will have to convert the
image to base64 strings. The process
converts the image into its original
base code that can be incorporated
into an HTML fi le. To convert the image,
go to http://webcodertools.com/
imagetobase64converter. Load the
image, and replace the image in the
HTML fi le with the contents appearing
in the Image tag text box, and save the
fi le. The image will then appear in your
selected signature.
