I recieved an e-mail back form my registration. It contained a web address and a user key which I used to access my record. At the top of that record I found the image. I right clicked and saved the image. I then used the Netscape Composer to create an HTML file which I stored as a signature file (siglinux.txt). I then pointed my Communicator to that file under Edit | Preferences | Mail & Groups | Identity. I found that I need to give an explicit path in the immage properties in order to make it work.
hmm, for the most part, about the same method I used to create my text signature, except that was done with vi I believe, (or the internal editor for midnight commander). BTW, I did get that email also, complete with the image, but when I reread the message, the message had disappeared:-( That was why I was wondering how you got the image.
It would appear that you are using an HTML enabled mail client. For folks without html clients this may come across as garbage. I hope it doesn't present them with too much consternation. I say they need to get with the 21st century. :-) If people do gripe a lot, well I guess I'll get rid of it.
hehe, actually, there have been occasions when I did use pine to read some of my mail and found myself in a message that contained html and/or images. All pine did was to tell me to use v/s to save the file so it could be viewed with an external viewer. But I guess that there are mail readers that aren't even that advanced:-) Though for the most part when I do reply or write to the "list" I generally try to send it in plain text as I have seen a few negative posts about sending html messages into the list:-( Thanx, I'll save this message (and forward it to myself so I can read it the next time I'm on the linux box:-) (My better half is using it now to play bingo or whatever:-) -- cya l8r Leon McClatchey leonmcclatchey@homemail.com (Win95 Box) - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
