Signature with Logo

G

Guest

I have created a company wide signature with our new logo and it works on
some computers but not on all. Some have Notepad vs. Word pop up as the
editor when I click on Advanced Edit. Some have FrontPage, some I just see
text only.

How do I get the signature with logo to work on all the computers?

Thanks,
Askew

You might want to control the signature at server level then instead of at
client level. It will save you a lot of support calls, users can't deny/mess
up the signature and changes are made so much eassier and faster at server
level.

Anyway; the Advanced Edit editor is the default HTML editor set for that
machine. To change go to Control Panel-> Internet Options-> tab Programs

Well that worked for 3 people.

How do I fix a broken link? The logo comes up with a red x in it.
When I open some of the signatures in Word, all I get is code text. How do
I fix this?
Some have only options as Excel, FrontPage and Notepad as editors.
On 2 computers, I see the signature just fine in the signature box, but when
I go to use it, I'm missing the logo.

Thanks!

What exact steps did you use to create the signature and insert the logo?
Note that pasting a picture into the editor is not the way to go. Using Word
as an HTML editor isn't something that I would recommend (unless Word 2007).
The HTML code for a signature really doesn't have to be that hard. Some
basics;

<html>
<body>
Insert a greeting,<br>
Your name<br>
<br>(empty rule)
Some more stuff you want to write<br>
<b>Maybe something bold?</b><br>
<a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">clickable link</a><br>
<img src="subfolder of Signatures/yourlogo.jpg"><br>
<br>
<i>or retrieve your logo from your website</i><br>

</body>
</html>

Actually I would like you to see the file that I created. All I did was
create it in Word. It's all text except for the logo. Please email me at
(e-mail address removed) and maybe you can help me once you see it.

Thanks,
