    This has been doing my nut in for ages, don't even know if it can be done, but here goes...

    Is it possible to create an email signature that is a picture hyperlink? Basically I want to attach a signature to my emails, a picture in fact that upon clicking will take you to a website... Been following various steps that I came across on google etc, but having no success. I have the website url that I want people to be directed to but the image bit is what I am having problems with... The image I want to use is contained on my laptop, so its not coming from an url... Is that the problem?
    Any advice appreciated, thanks :)

    You can do it but there's a good chance the recipient's email client will block it or attach it instead.

    You'd need to host the image somewhere externally unless you're running a web server

    There's loads of places that do it, try looking on some of the threads on forums here that allow inline images (not boards.ie attachments) and check the image preoperties/address. Or google "free image hosting" etc. If you have Eircom broadband I beleive they do free webspace, maybe others do too.
