How do I display customised images in my signature?

Question

How do I use a Customised image within a Signature Configuration?

Customised images could be a font, headshot image or a special graphic for your qualifications. All these images can be extracted and included in your Mail signature using the image library.
 

Solution

 

1. Create images of the signature name in the following format "Firstname_Lastname.gif" 
 

Example:

 

 

Initially, creating 2 - 3 gifs should be ok.
 

2. From the Signature Configuration Menu: Go to "Images" > "New Folder" > Add description and Save Changes

 

3. Open the newly created Image Folder "Crossware Images" and add the .GIF Image by clicking Upload an Image / Upload Image.

 

4. The Newly Created Images should appear

5. From the "Admin Menu": Go to "Fields" > "Formula" > "Create image field" 

6. Settings for the Signature Image Formula Field Look Up

Lookup Name: SigImageFormula

Type: Formula

Copy and paste the below C# code snippet into the Formula (C#) editor:

string strFirstName = "(!FirstName!)";
string strLastName = "(!LastName!)";

string fileName= strFirstName + "_" + strLastName +".gif";

return fileName;

 

7. Click SAVE & CLOSE to save the changes made then, click the "Send Test Email" button to Validate

Verify the format of the File Name generated is the same as the file name created in Step 1

8. From the "Admin Menu": Go to "Fields" > "Image" > "Create image field" > Select image
