Should you use images in email signatures?
Contrary to popular belief, you can and should include images in your email signature. A little bit of visual flourish helps your email signature stand out, and it can add a personal touch as well. No two email signatures are ever going to be the same, as companies and individuals all have different needs.
What is the best image format for email signature?
PNG
Use PNG or JPEG type images for maximum compatibility and always ensure you compress them using a tool like TinyPNG. PNG’s work best for logos and when you need transparency in your images. JPEG’s are best for profile pictures where the color quality needs to be perfect. Avoid using GIF animations (more on this later).

Should you add MBA to your email signature?
Add “MBA” to your email signature, as if you’re a PhD. Every single time you send an email, the recipient will be reminded of your impressive academic credentials. Don’t be surprised if complete strangers start greeting you in the hallways. “Hey, look, it’s the guy with the MBA!”
Can you use a JPG as an email signature?
When necessary, the image can be saved as a jpeg with maximum quality. However, for email signatures, we need images with an extra small size, but JPEG compresses with a loss of quality. The high compression algorithm is based on dividing the original image into 8×8 pixels squares, and their subsequent grouping.
Is PNG or JPEG better for email?
In fact, it is much better than GIF and generally as good as JPEG. PNG uses a different compression method than JPEG that does not cause any information or image quality loss (so called lossless compression). However, all new web browsers and email clients fully support the PNG file format.
