Hi, Is there a easy way to do a HTML signature? or is there a good extension to make a HTML signature?

Hi Claudia

Have you considered 'Quicktext'? It's very easy to use and, yes, you can use html too

Thank you, but it look like it won't work with TB 52.0.

It's a great little program.
It will take html, which is what you wanted
Why are you 'not crazy about it'?

I suspect your html coding, if that's what you've used, didn't have the 'paragraph' included, then. It would normally be ok

The other way to do it is to type your signature as you want it displayed, copy/ paste into Quicktext. It should then display as typed. I've used QuickText for years and it's so easy to just copy/paste, assign the entry with the shortcut keys and you're done.

If you've still got problems, then post what you've put in so that, maybe, we can help you

I find the ThunderHTMLedit add-on very handy - as you're composing your email, you can flick from your normal editor view to the HTML view and back again (any changes you make will immediately be reflected in the other window, so you can check as you go along). The two tabs just sit next to each other.

You could always use this to create a signature exactly how you want it, and then you could paste the HTML code into the signature text box in Account Settings (which is what I did).
