I have tried to add a signature, however it is a JPEG, not text. I was
wondering how exactly I make the HTML code to insert the jpeg.

I /believe/ this is the same for WinMail as these Outlook Express
directions.

Note: HTML Signatures must be less than 4KB.

Open a New Message window and create your signature. (Insert graphic &
text). Click the Source Tab. (View | Source Edit if not already checked).
Highlight the entire source code and copy / paste into Notepad. File | Save
As and in the File Name field, save as an htm file, (i.e. Sig1.htm). It will
be saved to My Documents by default. Go to Tools | Options | Signatures.
Click: File | Browse and Insert your saved signature | Apply. You can rename
it now if you wish.

Of course, if the recipient is reading in Plain Text, they won't see it.

I think this is easier.

Open Notepad and copy the following and paste it into the Notepad window:

<HTML>
<BODY>
<IMG src="File://c:\myimages\myimage.jpg">
</BODY>
</HTML>

Then edit the path to the image so that it is the full path to the image.
One can then add text and other HTML tags if desired. Then save the file
and give it an htm file extension. Then use that htm file as the signature.
