Re: Insert a jpg file into a signature

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



How big is the JPG file? If it's bigger than about 4 KB, Windows Mail
won't let you use it as a signature file directly.

Also, are the messages you're trying to add this signature to in the Rich
Text (HTML) format? If not, you're likely to have trouble using a JPG
file as a signature.

Thanks for the suggestion, but when I copy all that file below your email
and
try to paste it in a folder, it won't let me. What program am I supposed
to
be doing the editing in? I have my card already in a jpg, I was hoping I
could just insert that and my card will appear below where my signature
used
to.....any ideas about that?

you save the code and the image in the same folder. You can look at it

correct.

I recently purchased my business card in a jpg file so I can use it in
an
automated signature. I do Tools>Options>Signatures>File>Browse and
insert
the file with my e-card. When I go to create a new email, all that
appears
instead of my card is ÿØÿà. Does anyone know what I might be doing
wrong?
