<br>
<br>
<style type="text/css">

  a.link{margin:0;padding:0;border:none !important;text-decoration:none !important;}
  table,tr,td,a,span{font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;}
</style>

When you create the signature have you tried to drag and drop it in the signature window instead?

Hi,

what is wrong is the image path.

You need to either :

1. host your image then use its URL :

<img src="image_URL_here" border="0">

or :

2. create a code that will generate the image : in Terminal, enter :

openssl base64 -in

then add a space an drag your image (LinkedIn logo for example) into the Terminal window.

Example : openssl base64 -in /Users/Newtone/Images/linkedin.PNG

Hit Enter.
A code is generated.
Use it as follows :

<img src="data:image/png;base64,insert_code_here" border="0">

You can also use this : https://www.base64-image.de
(take a look at the tutorial page).
