Type the text you want for your signature, with whatever formatting and colors you want.

Alternatively, use some other program to create an HTML file. You can create the file using a plain text editor by typing the HTML tags yourself. Or you can create the file using a special editor that supports HTML. An HTML signature file uses your operating system's default character set which might not be the default character set that you specify for messages in Thunderbird.

You can use a plain text editor to check the file and remove the parts that you do not need. To include an image in your HTML signature this won't work with plain-text signatures , include the image in the message in the normal way. If the image file is on your computer, then Thunderbird attaches the file in each message that you send, so that people who receive your message can see the image.

If the image is on a web server, then you can choose not to attach the file. However, in this case people who receive your message might not see the image if they choose to block remote images for privacy reasons. If you create a signature file using some other program, ensure that the image tag contains the complete URL of the image file, not just the file name. Thunderbird requires a complete URL so that it can attach the image. If you get a "Sending of message failed.

There was an error attaching. Please check if you have access to the file" error message you might be running into a bug that changes the path of the image file. Try installing the QuoteAndComposeManager add-on and checking "Try to fix images paths in functions etc" if that occurs.
