Email Signature
Way back my call center agent years, we used Outlook as our mailing system. Each of us got our own personalized signature from adding animated signature, Changing text colors to adding links to your friendster or multiply site, fun and easy to change signature....thats in Outlook of course.
I tried making my own signature in yahoomail, i was able to make one but not that fancy. Just the company logo, my name and position, no big deal actually. I simply go to mail options and click on the signature link and create my personal signature there.By the way, if you want to add a picture, you need to upload it first to a webserver such as photobucket or imageshack.
In Gmail? well, i tried it there but since im a yahoomail fan, i didn't bother to create a signature in gmail but my officemate asked if its possible, so i did the same steps but i failed. Was not able to attach the company logo there.
What's with GMAIL?
Since i was not able to attach the logo there, i was bothered, hahaha. I asked my Uncle Google and got this info from this link

1. GMail allows plain text signatures but there's no way to embed HTML signatures with images like the ones you see in Yahoo, Hotmail or Microsoft Outlook email.
2. Gmail Rich text editor has standard text formatting features like font sizes, colors, bullets, hyperlinks, indentation, etc. but there's no way to add other HTML tags like TABLE, DIV, EMBED, etc. So how do you embed Youtube videos, sophisticated table layouts, Flash animation movies, inline podcast players like odeo, etc. in GMail ?
So there's the answer, basically Gmail does not allow html signature, period.
Hopeless with Gmail?
Well, not really. So the link suggested using Google Page Editor, but i used a different one instead. I used WiseStamp to create my signature in gmail. It is a Firefox plug in, so basically, you need firefox to use this :). And why WiseStamp? hmmm.... last bullet from this link over here WiseStamp Home says
" Works with Gmail, Google App’s, Yahoo! Mail, Hotmail, AOL and more… "
Let's see the interface then.
WiseStamp Features
So basically, you can't use WiseStamp and create your personal signature if you dont have Firefox and even if you have Firefox, if you didn't install the plug-in, you still can't use it.
So play with WiseStamp and just give me a feedback.
