Can't link a graphic?

Version: 2004 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Processor: Power PC Email Client: pop I've been told on this forums several times that one cannot have a graphic with live link in your email signature.
Still, I've recently received a few email with small buttons that link to facebook and myspace in Entourage. How are these folks achieving this? thanks.

They are not composing their messages with Entourage.

Entourage cannot create these embedded links but it can display them in
messages you receive.

Hope this helps!

Hi kevs,

again, this has nothing to do with the external application that you use to
create the logo, or the signature; it is simply a limitation of Entourage.
If you really want to do this, you'll have to use a different mail
application, such as Apple Mail. Alternatively, you could compose your
messages in Word (which allows you to attach hyperlinks to a logo), and,
when you are done, click on File>Send To>Mail Recipient (as HTML). This can
be a bit tedious if you have to do this several times a day.

A last solution might be to wait for Outlook for Mac; perhaps it will have
more advanced HTML creation capabilities.
