How do I include the image with the html for a signature file with Thunderbird?
Here, the html is in an external file.
Following generic directions, I saved an e-mail to file for reference. After removing anything outside the html tags, this file works as a signature file with Thunderbird fine -- except there's no image.
As memory serves, images must compressed or converted. Perhaps that's no longer the case.
Might it not be possible to simply copy the image, place it in a .jpg file alongside the sig.html file which Thunderbird is currently referencing, and load the image this way?
Or, must the image be converted to, as I recall, hex?
I'm looking to literally copy, exactly, a signature from an inbound message to use for outbound.
Mozilla directions are:
Including image files in signatures
To include an image file from your local computer in a signature,
follow the steps above to create an HTML signature. When you are
composing the signature contents, though, use the menu option to
specify the desired image.
In addition to selecting the image file, use this dialog to configure
other aspects of the image, such as the size, a URL link, its position
with regards to the text, etc.
Where, where they write "..use the menu option to specify the desired image" where is this menu option?
The .html file should be written from within Thunderbird itself? I'm not understanding the directions above.
