Thanks Shawn
That worked.
How do I get a word over my web address instead of the address.

I'm happy to hear that mamasaba.

For a word you can do like this example and type what you want for the highlighted in red part. Have the website address inbetween the "" in the first part. Just remove the * for it to work like the one under it.

[URL*="http://www.vistax64.com/"]Type what you want[/*URL]

Type what you want

This may come in handy to.

This is not working
It is showing up just as I typed it.
I know it is me. I am doing something wrong.
What could it be.

**Brink** · 06-19-2008

Sorry Mamasabe,

This was for posting in the website not for a signature.

I'm not sure how to get it to show as text of your choice like you do in the website example. I hope someone will come along that will know and let you know.

Sorry,

Shawn

Hi,

Ok, so this worked perfectly for me and I now have my logo on my signature block....HOWEVER it is now considered spam? Any tips?

Thanks,

Kim

Hi Kim,

How did you insert your logo into your signature? (attachment or link to a image hosting website)

Attached images sometimes will be blocked out by spam filters unless you are added as a safe sender to the person you are sending to.

Hope this helps some,
Shawn

Brilliant, thanks,
Works brilliantly i have to make everyone aware that the Security settings are hiding from us all
Tools > Safety Options > Security

It will work once you have unchecked everything under the heading Download Images in the Security Tab

100% Perfect

Regards

Hi guys!

I tried all the above steps but I keep seeing a red X when I want to send/receive an email.

This is the HTM file:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<META content="MSHTML 6.00.6001.18023" name=GENERATOR>
<STYLE></STYLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgColor=#ffffff>
<DIV><A HREF="http://www.boelsphotography.be"><img src=http://www.boelsphotography.be/boelslogo.jpg" border="0"/></A></DIV></BODY></HTML>

Then I go to "signatures" and "browse" for the file and unblock the "download images" box in the Security tab.

What am I doing wrong?

here's the one that i'm using

Obviously with the personal details erased

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 TRANSITION//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<META content="MSHTML 3.00.6001.17128" name="GENERATOR">
<STYLE></STYLE>
<BODY bgColor=#ffffff>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>NAME<br/>   </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><a href="http://www.URL.com">NAME OF URL</a></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><IMG src="http://IMAGE.jpg"></DIV></BODY></HTML>

Regards

Craig

I'm going to copy and paste and add with my personal information of course. I'm curious to see if it will work.

Allready thanks!
