Email Signature is a block of text appended at the bottom of an email message which contains the sender’s information like name,contact details,etc..Gmail has a feature of adding this signature automatically to every email once you enable that option,but in that feature we cant add a link or an image.Suppose you are a blogger and want others to know about blog then if you append your blog link in the end of the every email you send it will let your get good traffic and in many cases this email signature with links and images will help you.And here goes the tutorial .
Step 1: Login into your Gmail account and go to your Settings tab which will be on the top of the page.
Step 2: Now you should open Labs tab and should enable the Canned Responses and Inserting Images labs features.(Some times it will be difficult to find the lab features then you have to press Ctrl+F in your keyboard and type the names in the dialogue box which appears and you will surely find it.
Step 3: Now compose a new mail and create your signature in the format you want and be creative while doing so.You have the option to upload images(enabled by Inserting lab feature).
Step 4: To add an image in to your signature you have to click on the image icon which is in the menu just above the space you have to type your message .
Step 5: You can select your image from the local hard disk or from the web.select the image and add it to your message.
