How to create a signature image?

Yes, how to create a signature image instead of text signature? For this, the basic thing you need is a server where you should upload the images we will create. If you don't have a server where to upload the images, stop reading.
Otherwise, keep reading: with Photoshop or any other image editor, create and customize the images, your name, adress, phones, etc. Here is the principal: your blog or personal or company websites. You create also images with the internet address you want to show, for ex.;


And all these images will be uploaded to a folder in the server: /mysignature/images/...gif, etc.
Then, open the block note, and write a simple html page like this:


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>MY SIGNATURE TITLE</title>
</head>


<body>


<tr><td width="313">
<img src="http://www.example.com/mysignature/images/1.gif"><br>
<img src="http://www.example.com/mysignature/images/2.gif"><br>
<a href="http://myblog.example.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.example.com/mysignature/images/3.gif" title="My Web Professional"></a><br>
</td></tr>


</body>
</html>

And save this as mysignature.html.

If you use Outlook, go to Tools -> Options -> Signatures -> New -> 
and here select File option instead of Text option, and insert the folder and file name of the signature html you have just created, let's say, you have it saved in this folder: C:\myfiles|mysignature.html,

Apply and save. That's all. 
You are ready to send your smart and interactive signature to your friends or clients.
