Despite following all suggestions and actioning previously posted issues my email signature is failing to show as it should (links have outlines or are cropped and images don't appear) in the following areas...
When setting up the signature in outlook...
After sending the signature recipients see it wrong in both outlook and gmail.
a quick inside from the tech side: Outlook and GMail are the hardest clients to optimize for.
Outlook will render emails completly different in the browser than in the "Desktop App". (At least for the most current version. I'd say that the next Desktop version will be better - we'll see
GMail rewrites the code of every email before delivering it to you/reciever and drop everything that is not the most basic HTML+CSS. Unless you have a perfect source code it will - most likely - look "different".
This means:
Use HEX instead of RGBA values for colors
Don't use classes unless they have counterparts in the head-tag
style-tags that are outside the head-tag will be erased and therefore won't be available
background-colors on images can lead to unappealing renderings
and a Tipp: create the social icons as a bulletproof-image in a graphic software like photoshop/illustrator with the desired colors and size and use this instead of the generated one.
If you need help with that, I can provide you some images

My problem is similar and I hope much easier. I am trying to insert a JPEG image in my signature block. I go to the Gear, email, signature block and insert the image. It is saved and it is there when I look at my signature block I edited.
However, when I open a task and create an email, it doesn't have the jpeg banner. I click on the pencil icon to edit my signature block and it won't let me add the jpeg that is saved.
