MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / March 2008Image (Company Logo) in HTML Signature (Office 07)
Hi, I have created a HTML signature in Outlook 07 and edited it further in Expressions Web. I wanted to add the company logo so I inserted an image from my workstation. Stored locally on the C:Drive. Great! When I go to compose a new e-mail the image is there no probs, but as soon as it is sent it disappears. My guess is that as soon as the e-mail leaves my outbox the signature can no longer find the image. What are the way arounds this? I assumed that the image would embed itself in the html file and not require a permanent path to the original file? Can anyone help please. Jamie All depends on how you linked to the logo in your signature. You should use relative paths instead of absolute paths.

Thanks Jamie A relative path uses the location of the file calling another file as the base location like; subfolder\image.jpg An absolute path is a full path to the file to include like; C:\foldername\subfolder\image.jpg SignatureRobert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- > On 12 Mar, 13:26, "Roady [MVP]" > <newsgroups_DELETE_@_DELETE_sparnaaij_NO_._SPAM_net> wrote: [quoted text clipped - 39 lines] > > Jamie Actually, if you want it to be seen by everyone you send email to, you should have it as an absolute path, but to a public website where the image is located as an image tag... i.e. http://www.yoursite.com/images/myimage.jpg On Mar 12, 8:21 am, "Roady [MVP]" <newsgroups_DELETE_@_DELETE_sparnaaij_NO_._SPAM_net> wrote: > A relative path uses the location of the file calling another file as the > base location like; [quoted text clipped - 62 lines] > > - Show quoted text - That would exclude the people who would block external items so that still wouldn't be everyone ;-) SignatureRobert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more http://www.msoutlook.info/ Real World Questions, Real World Answers ----- > Actually, if you want it to be seen by everyone you send email to, you > should have it as an absolute path, but to a public website where the [quoted text clipped - 75 lines] >> >> - Show quoted text -
